McConnell: There’s No Pressure To Negotiate On Pelosi Relief Package

America does not have a greater enemy than the Democrat Party. Any Republican in Congress who supports this anti-American bill should be thrown out of the Republican Party.

McConnell: There’s No Pressure To Negotiate On Pelosi Relief Package

Story continues below advertisement

By Daily Wire, May 12, 2020

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) announced a $3 trillion fourth coronavirus relief package Tuesday, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is in no hurry to see it come to the floor of the Senate.

Speaking to reporters late Monday, McConnell says he feels no pressure to negotiate with Democrats on the HEROES Act, which contains everything from a student loan bailout to a $375 billion relief package for states and cities with existing debt problems, as the Daily Wire reported Tuesday. The bill also contains a $25 billion bailout for the United States Postal Service, $175 billion in payouts to healthcare providers, and millions to purchase laptops and other items for House Members who need them to vote remotely.

The bill also provides an additional three months of $1,200 stimulus checks for most taxpayers.

Republicans, McConnell said, are still “assessing what we’ve done already,” and will wait to see what impact the CARES Act and other coronavirus spending bills have on the existing economic situation before deciding what further relief might be necessary, Politico reports.

“I’m in constant communication with the White House and if we decide to go forward we’ll go forward together,” McConnell added. “We have not yet felt the urgency of acting immediately. That time could develop, but I don’t think it has yet.”

Senate Majority Whip John Thune (R-SD) called the HEROES Act “more like a messaging document than anything else.”

Indeed, Pelosi put out the call to Democratic leadership last week to submit a “laundry list” of desired items for inclusion in the Act, which topped out, today, at more than 1,800 pages. Democrats themselves admitted last week that the bill reads more like a “wish list” than anything else, and is a starting point for negotiations, not a final product.

Pelosi Coronavirus Plan Allows Business to Hire Illegal Aliens Over 33M Unemployed Americans
Illegal immigrants line up for work permits
JOHN BINDER 12 May 2020

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) latest Chinese coronavirus relief package shields illegal aliens from deportation so long as they take American jobs in “essential critical infrastructure work,” shielding their employers from prosecution.

The plan, proposed by House Democrats, offers an amnesty for illegal aliens who take American jobs deemed “essential” during the crisis, even as more than 33 million Americans are unemployed.

Specific provisions of the plan ensure that illegal aliens taking essential American jobs are provided with deferred action and authorized for employment, effectively halting Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) ability to deport them.

Likewise, the House Democrat plan provides business with a major giveaway by suspending the Department of Labor’s ability to prosecute an employer that hires illegal aliens over unemployed Americans.

“House Democrats prioritizing foreign workers, legal and illegal, over unemployed and underemployed Americans in the middle of a crisis is shameful,” NumbersUSA President Roy Beck.

The plan would also ensure that millions of illegal aliens with taxpayer-identification numbers are able to secure $1,200 cash payments of U.S. taxpayer money — funds meant for struggling Americans.

“Instead of focusing on helping 33 million unemployed Americans get back to work, the so-called Heroes Act uses the COVID-19 pandemic to give amnesty — and cash payments — to illegal foreign workers in the United States,” Beck said.

The plan to flood the U.S. labor market with foreign, illegal workers during a period of mass unemployment stands in stark contrast to an initiative by GOP lawmakers to halt all foreign visa worker programs.

Recent surveys find overwhelming support for pauses to legal immigration. The latest Washington Post/University of Maryland poll revealed that about 65 percent of all Americans said they support suspending all immigration at the moment.

Watching PeLousy on television while she shrieked about her $3 TRILLION spending spree, it occurred to me that during the lockdown of our country, among many other things, cancer patients’ treatments have been late/delayed/cancelled and elective surgeries have been indefinitely postponed.

Yet abortions have continued unabated, and Nancy can obviously continue to get her Botox injections.

Abortions are time sensitive once you are past a given date you are not eligible any more

What I would like to see is McConnell give each Republican senator a stack of pre-torn pages of this bill and let them stand up all a once and ripe them up.

Unfortunately, republicans will do their usual fold…….big talk, little action. We will hear the usual excuse of, “It was the best we could get.” Drain the swamp. Start with the republican “Leadership” in the senate…..they’ve gotten to fat and happy. Time for new blood.

It’s past time for Pelosi to be charged for many crimes against America and true Americans. They don’t serve ice cream in prison I’m sure, but if they do it’s cheap ice cream. Fill her fat ugly face with it until it runs down her orange jumpsuit.

My question – the first 4 total almost the same amount combined – We had to borrow that money…. FROM WHO ? I guess it would be PRUDENT to look at we’d be borrowing for this one too..If the nitwits allow the psycho rats to pull this one off that means we’ve just added – 6 fuc-ing trillion dollars – to the National Debt ..And one of the biggest nutbags wants us to stop ” whining ” and just pass the bill ? Back to just who would we be borrowing from would it be too big a stretch to think it is from the same RATS that have perped this?
