NBC: Congress May Recess to Protect Against Virus

Lawmakers are beginning to push for Congress to go into recess because of the growing coronavirus outbreak, with some expressing concern that members could even bring the disease home with them.

Members of Congress "are concerned, particularly older members and a number who have conditions that make them more susceptible," NBC News reports, quoting an unnamed person characterized as a Democrat congressional source/

The fears are growing after reports that a person attending the recent Conservative Political Action Conference has been hospitalized with COVID-19.

Our wish is granted if they do this.
No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington

Maybe the liberals in the House should take a corona break and leave the conservative (?) House members to do their jobs without obstruction. 

Liberals in the Senate should do the same -- although they should wait until Ted comes back.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
