It’s not a Dem plan, it’s a bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus proposal


to break the logjam and actually help people with urgent needs. Pelosi got her plan shoved back in her surgically-enhanced face.

The hold up is this issue:

“$500.3 billion in state and local aid, which includes $130 billion for documented coronavirus state and local expenses through 2021, $120.3 billion for documented local budget shortfalls and $250 billion for proven state government shortfalls.”

Dems want more money for their states to shore up massive unfunded state and local employee pension obligations incurred over decades of fiscal mismanagement.
