This virus is not an issue of states’ rights.

This is a national disaster.

The states need federal assistance. No state can get all the ventilators they need.

We need a national deployment of resources that follows need.

The timing won’t be perfect. Multiple states may hit a peak around the same time.

But not every state will hit an apex at once.

That’s why I believe Mutual Aid is the only solution.

We need a rolling deployment of resources. We need a national coordinated effort.
