Why debate the coronavirus bill currently before Congress? When Congress rushed through a massive stimulus plan in 2008, it ended up bailing out big businesses but not regular people.

Meanwhile, Republicans have proposed pathetically weak executive pay restrictions for companies relying on taxpayer support.

Any economic stimulus package must include an initiative to retrofit homes and public buildings for low-income communities and communities of color.

Legislators proposing major stimulus packages must ensure bailout dollars are funneled to workers, not executives or shareholders.

Trump’s message to governors on lifesaving medical equipment — “get it yourselves” — is grimly appropriate in a country without national health care.

The government should provide direct wage subsidies to airline workers while restricting CEO pay to no more than 50 times median wages.

As cities and states grapple with the spread of coronavirus, activists remind government why water is a human right and not a commodity.
