New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Chairman Jerrold Nadler, dean of the New York congressional delegation, issued the following joint statement after the congressional delegation meeting:
“Congress must urgently pass additional funding to address COVID-19 related challenges. Without it, the nation risks losing the ability to develop vaccines for new variants and the continued scaling of treatment production. We know that the virus disproportionately impacts the uninsured, elderly, and immunocompromised, and we need this critical federal funding to address the inequities laid bare over the last two years. Additionally, the funding will help maintain free testing and treatment capabilities for millions of New Yorkers, continue to secure supplies of essential treatments, and develop next-generation vaccines.”
