richard pollock, the ceo of the american hospital association. thank you for being with me. >> thank you for having me. >> your group with the american nurse association and the ama said $100 billion was needed in assistance. the stimulus proposal for hospitals is $130 billion. some officials are warning though that coronavirus has not yet even peaked in the u.s. is $130 billion enough as you see it? >> it's an important first step that will give us the resources that are very much needed in terms of getting the supplies, the personal protective equipment that we need to provide to our health care givers on the front lines, the doctors, nurses, and other workers that are the true heroes in this battle. it will be helpful in that regard. there is also assistance in there to help us build search capacity as well and to help us with cash flow because we've shut down all other operations, have nothing coming in, and we have a lot of expenses going out. so we're going to need that type of funding. now, i want to praise the leadership of senator mcconn
