Senator Elizabeth Warren has brought forth legislation for free mass coronavirus testing for essential workers and those incarcerated.
The bill is called the Expanding COVID-19 Testing Capacity Act of 2020.
The bill would also require protections for those who are hired as a result of the bill.
The federal government would manufacture and distribute COVID-19 diagnostic tests.
The kits would be delivered to community centers, congregate care settings, schools, and childcare facilities.
