Van Hollen Statement on Biden Executive Actions on COVID-19

Today, U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) released the following statement regarding President Biden’s executive actions on the COVID-19 pandemic: 

“To beat the COVID-19 pandemic we need a strong, coordinated national response with leadership and guidance from the highest levels of government. The Biden-Harris Administration understands this fact and today’s actions will help us immediately right the course of our national response. From the decision to extend the eviction moratorium, to the pause on student loan payments, to the sweeping new whole-of-government approach to the pandemic, I fully support these actions, and I know they will help our nation tackle the COVID-19 crisis head-on. We must work together to ramp up vaccinations and fight this pandemic on every front.”
