DC-area lawmakers want White House to share its total number of positive tests
Nine House Democrats representing Washington, D.C. and the city's Maryland and Virginia suburbs are calling on the White House to share more information about the White House coronavirus outbreak, which they're calling "out of control."
The lawmakers, whose constituents work at the White House, want the White House to disclose the date of Trump's last negative test, the total number of positive cases, and cooperate with local and state health departments' contact tracing efforts.
"This is no time for publicity stunts that put people at risk, or for playing down the seriousness of this pandemic," they wrote in a statement Tuesday. "The American people will never trust the Administration to keep them safe if the White House cannot protect its own staff."
