Senate Democrats Block More Coronavirus Relief Because of Focus on Small Businesses

Senate Democrats today blocked more corornavirus relief for small business because they want more cash for their priorities.

Via CNBC:

“McConnell pushing to add an additional $250 billion to the Paycheck Protection Program for small businesses.”

“He is concerned that there’s so much demand for that program, it could be running out of funds sooner rather than later but Democrats blocking that move this morning.”

“They need unanimous consent on the Senate floor in order to get this done because there’s few senators around Democrats stepping in, saying, ‘No, no, no, what we want is a much bigger program, an additional $250 billion for states, localities, hospitals, all sorts of other entities.”

“The Democrats envision a much bigger program, they don’t want to just pass what’s called a clean bill just focused solely on the small business issue they’ve stepped up to block that. That means no deal, no replenishment of that fund today. We’ll see where this goes.”

One thing about this crisis is it has totally clarified how petty, despicable and vile Democrats really are.
