Republicans Cave To Pelosi, Unanimously Vote To Give $350 Million To Refugees, Migrants
dailycaller ^ | March 26, 2020 | justincaruso

Republican and Democratic senators unanimously voted to pass a coronavirus relief bill late Wednesday that gives $350,000,000 to assist refugees and migrants.

Earlier this week, it was revealed that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s relief package would include $300,000,000 for refugee assistance.

The new bill, approved by the Senate and now headed to the House, includes an additional $50 million on top of Pelosi’s initial $300 million for refugees.

On page 817 of the 880-page bill, the measure calls for “an additional amount for ‘Migration and Refugee Assistance’, $350,000,000, to remain available until expended, to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus.”

right? because flooding the country in areas already flooded with illegals who has GOD KNOWS WHAT VIRUS, and flooding the streets with criminal types really helps when a pandemic breaks out huh? F** these liberal shit hole cities who have horrible policies that flood their streets and hospitals with low lifes to use at will then cry “WE HAVE NO RESOURCES” for the average person when a virus breaks out.

Not really.

What a disappointment.

All that money is going to be sent out of the country.

mind you, I’m not calling this poster a plant, but if he was a plant, this is exactly the sh*t a plant would be doing.

There is a lot of misinformation going around about this bill, some are even referencing pelosi's failed wish list. Who know what's actually in it. We'll find out over the next few days. We do know that the gopE wants basically the same things as the dems, and that Trump will compromise to get what he believes America needs.

Back off dog boy.

I’m reporting, it’s YOU that’s flipping out.

I’m glad that 350 million is pocket change to you.

To people out of work and doctors nurses etc etc that could use even a piddling amount like 350M.

RINOs never realize they can never out-Democrat the Democrats. They are perpetually desparate to play the left-of-middle game in the quest for votes.

I used to simply despise the Democrat Party.

This naked abuse of power, however, spawns a tremendous animus against them.

This is disgusting. They are rewarding illegals and drug cartels to come here and murder Americans. I hope these Democrat bastards burn in hell for all eternity.

Trump should bring this up non-stop 24/7 how democrats ignore Americans in need in favor of illegals.

I think universal mail-in voting is still in that bill. If that passes then we can kiss the election in November goodbye and eventually all other elections as it legalizes Democrat vote fraud.

When it was Newt Gingrich as Speaker and Bill Clinton as president, Clinton vetoed “The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act Reconciliation Act of 1996” (welfare reform) TWICE until he got a bill that he could support.
President Trump should veto this bill and send it back to Mitch McConnell for more work.

I have no idea what you mean.

Plants can’t talk or type.

You a Progressive?
