Tillis also discussed the need to heed the advice of the experts when it comes to school openings and sports, the push for a COVID-19 vaccine and the need for another stimulus package.

HIGHLIGHTS

• SENATOR TILLIS: We absolutely have to pass a follow up to the CARES Act. We have to provide support to individuals through a $1200 payment. They need that money to pay their rent, to pay for food.
  …
  KENNY BECK: He (Tillis) says North Carolinians know that he works for them and uses the Paycheck Protection Program as an example.

  SENATOR TILLIS: Hundreds of thousands of jobs in North Carolina were saved by this program, which is why I can’t imagine anybody, including Cal Cunningham, a business that he worked for incidentally who got a loan, criticizing a program that saved so many jobs in North Carolina.
