“My constituents need a voice in Congress right now,” Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., said in a statement Monday after he and 66 other members asked the Rules Committee to make the change.
He didn’t fit the criteria for getting tested because he had no symptoms and no “specific encounter” with people at a fundraiser he’d attended who later tested positive. Paul said he got tested anyway because he was traveling extensively for his job and has a compromised lung.
Nearly three dozen congressional lawmakers have announced steps to self-quarantine, or otherwise isolate themselves as a precaution. “It is critical that no matter how this crisis develops, I can continue to advocate for working families in my district—no matter where I am physically. And every Member of Congress should be able to do the same."
