Also, Congress has passed the Families First Act to mitigate harm from the COVID-19 crisis emergency. The act will  (among other things) extend employee sick leave benefits, expand free testing, and provide food aid to the most vulnerable citizens. It is likely one of several relief bills to be passed in the wake of the outbreak.
