The state will centralize efforts to acquire personal protection equipment needed to protect healthcare workers from the coronavirus due to a severe shortage.

The Record

The U.S. Senate was unable to pass a nearly $2 trillion government rescue package March 22.  Democrats voted against the Republican-backed package, viewing it favoring big business over workers and failed to ensure bailed-out companies would not enrich themselves after receiving government aid. The New York Times

U.S. stock futures, global stocks and oil prices lowered due to the rapid spread of coronavirus cases and Washington’s delay over an economic rescue package. S&P 500 futures fell 3%, after briefly hitting the maximum 5% loss allowed in a single session March 23. The Wall Street Journal
