YES…
You read THAT right….
Democrats want send everyone making less than $120,000 a prorated government check while the virus restrictions are in effect….
This is from the Bernie Sanders crew…
Folks?
This is NOT gonna happen….
(WTF IS PAYING FOR THIS???…Oh, HIGHER TAXES on the middle class?…Anybody think The GOP led Senate is gonna even vote on this???)
It’s Bernie Sanders , Harris and Mass. Sen. Markey effort to ‘push’ Joe Biden to the left….
A trio of Democratic senators are pitching a big idea: pay most American families thousands of dollars each month until the coronavirus’s economic crisis subsides.
On Friday, Sens. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Ed Markey (D-Mass.) will release their Monthly Economic Crisis Support Act. It would dramatically expand upon the $1,200 sent to Americans as part of March’s gargantuan coronavirus response bill.
The legislation would send a monthly $2,000 check to people who make less than $120,000. It would expand to $4,000 to married couples who file taxes jointly and also provide $2,000 for each child up to three. Harris said the bill is a reflection that Congress’s efforts so far were not “nearly enough to meet the needs of this historic crisis” and Markey called the massive cash infusion “the most direct and efficient mechanism for delivering economic relief to those most vulnerable.”
Meanwhile Ted Cruz got his haircut from the salon owner who defied the GOP governor’s orders and reopened her business early.
The woman was jailed, which was a bit harsh. But Cruz is clearly signaling that he is cool with those who think the rules are for other people.
So much for Republican “respect for the law”.
