Democrats in Congress and state legislatures should also call for a 10% reduction in Congressional/legislative pay like so many Americans across the country have taken. Solidarity.
These kinds of things are what the average person understands and would remind everyone that Democrats are the party of the regular person.

We need to show the nation what true empathy and leadership looks like and in the process make Trump look like an even bigger fool.
Compassion for the dead and their families. Empathy for all who have suffered. Solidarity with the workers. vs the GOP.
