MA First Congressional District Democratic Primary Debate: Rep. Richard Neal and Mayor Alex Morse

Published | Video Starts at 11:27

Congressman Neal, one minute to respond, please. Your rebuttal. 31 million Americans are collecting unemployment insurance rate. Thanks to at least the efforts that I made, 10,400 small businesses in the first congressional district have taken loans averaging under $150,000 a year. 99% of the households in this congressional district have broadband. In addition, those $1,200 stimulus checks, as I noted earlier, helped to create demand to sustain families. (11:27–11:36)
