    Maybe it would have gotten done if his time and attention wasn't WASTED dealing with a BOGUS investigation and impeachment.

    The Democrats are to blame.

    Nope, I don’t have a habit of “making shit up” it’s all in the news. I’m a huge Obama fan, but they are correct on this issue.

    During the presidency of Barack Obama, the national stockpile was seriously taxed as the administration addressed multiple crises over eight years. About "75 percent of N95 respirators and 25 percent of face masks contained in the CDC's Strategic National Stockpile (∼100 million products) were deployed for use in health care settings over the course of the 2009 H1N1 pandemic response," according to a 2017 study in the journal Health Security.
    Again according to NIH, the stockpile's resources were also used during hurricanes Alex, Irene, Isaac and Sandy. Flooding in 2010 in North Dakota also called for stockpile funds to be deployed. The 2014 outbreaks of the ebola virus and botulism, as well as the 2016 outbreak of the zika virus, continued to significantly tax the stockpile with no serious effort from the Obama administration to replenish the fund.

    All spending bills originate in the House.

    Nervous Nancy was too busy with impeachment mierda to replenish the fund.and do her job of protecting the American people.

    She should be impeached.

    I heard yesterday that 3M corp. is delivering 50 million N95 masks by the end of the month and 50 million every month after that.

    Yes, I did, you just chose to overlook it. Trump’s response has been to close agencies, he has done far more damage.
