Activities

Between August 12–19, 2019, Rush took part in the Aspen Institute's week-long conference in Rwanda (East Africa) which was underwritten by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund. While attending the event, Rush meets with Gates Foundation representatives to discuss which companies a future government contact tracing program will award contracts to. This is before any mention of a "Covid. pandemic".

Nine months after these meetings, on May 1, 2020, Rush introduced in Congress HR 6666, a $100 billion COVID-19 Testing, Reaching and Contacting Everyone (TRACE) Act. Thirteen days later, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi slides $75 billion for "Covid-19 testing, tracing and isolation efforts" into the $3 trillion Covid relief package.
