Dems Wanted Pet Projects in the American Family Aid Bill.

Democrats wanted progressive add-ins to the aid bill that have nothing to do with providing aid to American families, the economy, or dealing with Covid-19.

These pet projects included:

– New collective bargaining powers for unions.

– New fuel emission standards for airlines tied to the Green New Deal.

In especially during a time where the U.S. is now facing major economic risks for shutting down much the country and the economy, Democrats pushing for unrelated pet projects just doesn’t provide good optics to voters.

Are Viruses & Borders Racist? A Brief History Where Major Viruses Originated

WASHINGTON, DC. Many in the media, pundits and politicians who already despise the current Administration, naturally have decided to use the Covid-19 virus as a political weapon.

Dems Block DHS Funding Bill, Republicans Cry ‘Uncle’

WASHINGTON DC. The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bi-partisan bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in January 2015. The bill was passed with a vote 236-191. This DHS bill then moved to the U.S. Senate where Senate Democrats have blocked the bill.

Democrats are technically in the minority power since the 2014 Mid-term elections. Senate Dems began to filibuster the DHS funding bill holding it up from a vote.
The Other Amnesty You Probably Didn’t Hear About

It isn’t that Dems don’t want DHS funded, it is that there is a provision in the Bill that de-funds President Obama’s immigration action. For starters, Obama’s immigration action effectively grants de facto amnesty to some 5 million+ illegal aliens in the USA. This is on top of the 5.46 million migrants granted effective stay since 2009.
