We are 4 years post-COVID... what “COVID relief” is still necessary?

Perhaps the most eloquent put-down I've ever seen:

Maybe the dems don’t want to give up their kickbacks.

$130 billion here, $130 billion there, and it begins to add up.

It is somewhat surprising that they all didn’t spend it right away. Guess they just couldn’t fill out the paperwork fast enough. You’d think that working from home would have provided an opportunity to process the forms.

“The decision mainly affects funds schools have budgeted—but not yet spent—from the last round of COVID relief funding of about $130 billion that Congress approved in March 2021 as part of the American Rescue Plan Act.”

I’m not faulting you, but the author omits to divulge the key fact of the whole story: HOW FREAKING MUCH of the budgeted $130 Billion has not yet been spent? Might be a ten cents. Might be $130 billion. I’m suspicious that she is working from a press release written to imply significant savings, when the real number is peanuts. [If I’m blind and missed it, my apologies].
