Cassidy Talks Economy Start-Up, How to Do It Safely [VIDEO]
United States Senator Bill Cassidy talks with 101.7 / 710 KEEL's Robert J Wright and Erin McCarty about his role on the President's Task Force, a group whose role is to help plan the "re-start" of the American economy in the wake of the Coronavirus quarantine.
Cassidy tells KEEL listeners that the goal of the task force is to advise the President on how to put America - and American businesses - back to work, while maintaining the greatest possible level of safety from the virus.
The Senator also says he favors targeting virus "hot spots" around the state, making testing and care in the areas hardest hit more readily available.
