SAN DIEGO In response to Congress passing the long-awaited COVID-19 relief package, Mayor Todd Gloria today said:

Im encouraged that Congress took a step to provide much-needed relief for families, renters, healthcare providers and small businesses, but I remain deeply troubled by the lack of fiscal support for local and state governments. While I am grateful for our local delegations leadership today, we need Congress and the incoming administration to take immediate action so we can continue to keep neighborhoods safe and clean, pave streets, and provide the critical services San Diegans rely on. I will continue to fight alongside my fellow mayors to get the direct assistance we need to jump start our local economies and begin to build back better for all of us.
