I le taimi nei, o le toʻatele o tagata o loʻo tautua i le feterale o loʻo faʻamaonia moliaga o vailaʻau ua maliliu i le COVID-19 ma isi o le a mulimuli mai. Ua fa'ailoa mai ai le fa'aletonu o le fa'aletonu a le malo tele e fa'aitiitia le malosi o le falepuipui ina ia mautinoa ai le soifua maloloina ma le soifua manuia o i latou o lo'o i lalo o lana vaavaaiga.

OA MEA E AVEA MAI LENEI TUSI:

“In an effort to distract Americans from his delayed response to the COVID-19 crisis—which at this point we know will likely cost hundreds of thousands of lives—Trump is unnecessarily choosing to double down on the cruel and inhumane international war on drugs, which has already devastated countless communities domestically and abroad.
By allocating scarce and valuable PPE to soldiers for the escalation of this ineffective and elective war, Trump is nonsensically preventing these vital supplies from reaching the hands of our doctors, nurses, and healthcare workers—who are fighting a critical battle across the country and begging in vain every day for these resources.
Instead of doubling down on the war on drugs that has been a failure in every sense, we should be focused on rebuilding communities and fostering the health and safety of all people.
