That is what ALWAYS happens.
Did you know that the SS Stimulus check WAS going to be only $600?
Now it's $1.200. Any fartasaures's upset with that change? That's right the GOP was going to screw you.
The bill is better for the compromises BOTH sides made.
This is what made it INTO the Bill, your article speculated about what would be in the Bill. One thing that wasn't in the GOP version was any oversight of $500 billion that WOULD have been disbursed under Trump and Munch's 'supervision'. Who TF is dumb enough to think THAT was a good idea?
"We improved it," Schumer said. "It's not everything everyone wants, but it's a great start, and we'll keep at it."
This bill contains in it, among other things, direct funding for hospitals and medical first responders, expanded unemployment insurance for workers laid off or furloughed due to the COVID-19 closures, direct payments of $1,200 to American workers making a salary under $75,000 and scaled back appropriations for workers making up to $99,000. It also includes some relief for small businesses and loans for larger key industries.
Schumer outlined what he said are five gains by Democrats within the stimulus package, spearheaded during the negotiations between senators on both sides of the aisle.
The gains include: increased funding going directly to hospitals and medical workers, enhancements to the length of time that a worker laid off due to coronavirus can receive unemployment benefits, oversight for corporations receiving loans, money given for small businesses, and support given to states and localities.
Dems insisted on oversight. GOP wanted jack to do with oversight.
