Pelosi: 'Just calm down,' we'll secure 'significant' money for states, localities
Washington Times, Apr 26, 2020

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Sunday said people clamoring for additional direct funding for states in federal rescue legislation should “just calm down” and vowed that Democrats will secure the money in later rounds of legislating in response to the coronavirus outbreak.

“Just calm down,” Mrs. Pelosi, California Democrat, said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “We will have state and local, and we will have it in a very significant way.”

The speaker’s comment came after a clip of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo ran in which the governor said he would have insisted that funding for states be included in the legislation.

She complimented governors like Mr. Cuomo and Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan and said state and local governments have done their jobs “magnificently.”

“They should be impatient - their impatience should help us get an even bigger number,” she said. “As I say to members, judge it for what it does - don’t criticize it for what it doesn’t because we have a plan for that.”

Excessive spending will make temporary economic damage a permanent fixture.

For starters, there should be no federal assistance for sanctuary cities and states.

BTW looking at Pelosi's endorsement of Biden for president its clear she had some elective surgery done on her face during the lockdown. That would explain why she refused to come back to DC for a few weeks.

Why should the people and taxpayers of America be bailing out poorly run states (like Illinois, as example) and cities, in all cases Democrat run and managed, when most of the other states are not looking for bailout help? I am open to discussing anything, but just asking?

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.
