Dems Got Some Of Their Pork Instead Of Giving More To The People!

And they care so much! 🙄

“Pelosi was a force behind $400 million in grants to states to expand voting by mail and other steps that Democrats billed as making voting safer but Republican critics called political opportunism.

Museums, libraries and arts organizations across the country, which have been closing because of the pandemic, could get a boost from grants to state arts and humanities organizations.

The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, which has been closed until May, would get $25 million so it can reopen its doors once the crisis is over.”

I ask again what in the hell does the above have to do with immediate relief for those who have been furloughed or lost their jobs. Nothing! Nada! Put those funds into the pockets of folks who need it now! To pay rent, to pay their monthly bills. Deal with the Dems “Pork” wants later!

And those dastardly Reps don’t care about people as evidenced below!

“Republicans won inclusion of an employee retention tax credit that's estimated to provide $50 billion to companies that retain employees on payroll and cover 50% of workers' paycheck up to $10,000. Companies would also be able to defer payment of the 6.2% Social Security payroll tax.”

In other words if a company receives relief they have to continue paying their employees! There is going to be an oversight committee to make sure it’s done!

And...this is for you “ultravio”:

“Companies receiving assistance would be barred from raising the pay of certain executives.

Any company receiving a government loan would be prohibited from buying back stocks while getting assistance as well for an additional year.”

Now, do some more bitching about how the Corps. are getting most of the funds and the workers get “scraps”!
