Pelosi, Dems craft $750 billion aid bill for state and local govs; Republicans not invited to discussion
May 11, 2020 | Samantha Chang

Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi is drafting a $750 billion coronavirus relief bill to aid struggling state and local governments without consulting Republicans, according to reports.

The aid package that Pelosi is unilaterally drafting would use funds collected from ALL taxpaying Americans — not just Democrats.

The Democrat-controlled House of Representatives has not discussed the legislation with Republicans in either the House or the GOP-controlled Senate. This makes no sense, because Pelosi needs Republican approval to ultimately pass the bill.

“We’ve really not been invited into those discussions yet,” Republican Congressman Greg Walden told the Wall Street Journal.

Sources say the $750 billion aid package would assist state and local governments, whose economies cratered due to the one-size-fits-all nationwide shutdowns. The legislation could be completed this week and would fork over billions in taxpayer money.

IOW, money laundering to finance Rat campaigns.

The govt union's pensions get bailed out and the same unions give big donations to the Rats and donate time/labor to the same Rat campaigns.

Good thing this garbage is going nowhere. The only way there is any demand for more aid is if the states stay closed and that's not happening except in the most blue states.

Oh, all Senators have to do is vote for it.  It might be too many pages to read.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.
