'Our recovery only comes when the quarantine is ended'

Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky excoriated his colleagues in Congress over their efforts to provide relief to Americans while putting the country in debt instead of opening up the economy.

"If you print up billions of dollars and give it to people, they are unlikely to spend it until you end the quarantine," said Paul in his speech on the Senate floor on Tuesday after returning from his battle with coronavirus.

Paul said that these randomized studies show that America can manage the coronavirus without continuing the "Draconian" lockdown policies.

"We can't continue on this course!" Paul added.

Paul praised the numerous efforts from Americans to combat the coronavirus pandemic, then returned to the subject of the debt amassed by the relief bills.

"Our recovery only comes when the quarantine is ended," Paul added.

Paul also decried the passage of the massive relief bill without a recorded vote.
