Jewish Insider: Daily Kickoff

April 1, 2020

Rep. Max Rose (D-NY) begins his deployment with the National Guard later today as an operations officer assisting in coronavirus response efforts at Staten Island facilities.

Speaking on a conference call hosted by the Jewish Democratic Council of America yesterday, Rose said, “When I’m a member of Congress, the generals call me ‘sir.’ But when I’m in uniform, I’m just a lowly captain. So I’m going into this with no illusions of grandeur. Just to do my small part and do my duty.”
