Congresswoman Robin Kelly (IL-02) this week led a letter to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra and White House COVID-19 Coordinator Jeff Zients requesting that the Biden Administration prioritize plans to distribute COVID-19 vaccinations to homebound people across the United States.
“Many homebound people live with serious health challenges and are at extremely high risk of grave illness or death if infected with COVID-19,” said Congresswoman Robin Kelly, Chair of the Congressional Black Caucus Health Braintrust. “While they are not in public, they are exposed through home health providers, family members, and delivery people. We must make sure protecting this vulnerable population is a priority as we continue to develop vaccination plans for the United States.”

Among major U.S. airlines, there is an undisputed champion on domestic Southwest Airlines. Almost one domestic passenger in five flies Southwest, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics.
If you fly regularly on Southwest, or even if you are an infrequent flyer, you should be a member of its loyalty program, Rapid Rewards. That’s because Southwest’s Rapid Rewards points never expire, and like all airline points and miles they can help you save a significant amount when traveling.
