COVID-19 Update from GANYC - March 30, 2020

The second issue of the GANYC Virgil is out: COVID-19 Update from GANYC - March 30, 2020

This issue begins with a note from our President, especially the sad news of the passing of member Judy Richheimer, who was a beloved friend and activist. We will be keeping her and her loved ones in our thoughts this week, as we do our medical professionals and first responders who are out there keeping us safe.

The issue also contains some economic updates, including information on the recently passed CARES Act, which will provide relief checks to most Americans, as well as an expansion of unemployments benefits to self-employed and gig workers. We thank all our members and colleagues who helped lobby for the latter, which is a game-changer for economic justice.

Finally, the newsletter as always has fun ideas for ways to pass your free time (including virtual tour summits, webinars, and more!), and some humor to lift your spirits.
