WASHINGTON, DC-Rep. Xochitl Torres Small (NM-02) issued the following statement after the President signed the bipartisan coronavirus relief and omnibus funding bill into law:

"We got it done, but it should not have been this hard. Congress took too long to reach a deal for COVID relief, and President Trump continuously changed his position, making the trust necessary for compromise almost impossible. The Problem Solvers were crucial, once again, to getting an agreement back on track," said Torres Small.

"I am proud to vote for the CASH Act, to deliver $2,000 in recovery rebates to families across New Mexico and supplement the strong COVID package we passed last week to support hospitals, schools, small businesses, and people who've lost their jobs in this crisis."
