Tim Kaine is reintroducing a bipartisan measure named after Dr. Lorna Breen, a New York City emergency room director who died by suicide in April last year. Breen was spending time with family in Charlottesville after a round-the-clock schedule responding to the pandemic. The proposal already has some funding laid out in the Senate’s COVID relief bill, which Kaine says he expects to pass this week. Emily Boucher, a nurse from Abingdon, Va., spoke at a press conference with Kaine earlier today. She said providing and maintaining help is necessary, because healthcare burnout isn’t going to end.
