Schumer says New York will receive $750M a month from coronavirus bill
NY Post ^ | March 12, 2020

New York is set to get $750 million a month in coronavirus economic stimulus legislation that’s currently being finalized, Sen. Chuck Schumer tells The Post.

The Democratic Senate minority leader said Thursday that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) signed off on the Empire State funding and that he hasn’t heard of objections from the White House or Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, who is negotiating with Pelosi.

Schumer said he scored the haul by temporarily adjusting the state’s Medicaid reimbursement rate. Right now, the federal government pays 50 percent of expenses for Medicaid in New York. Under the deal, the feds would temporarily pay 58 percent.

Schumer counting cash: $450 for me, $50 for victims, $33,120 for me, $50 for victims. He’s glad calculators were invented.
Solution: Trump has to send NY much more cash. Now.

How about if NY has to submit bills identifying what they are for, before they receive anything.

Boy, he really paid the price for threatening the supreme court justices. Republicans really came down hard on him.

And didn’t Trump only ask for $2.5 billion in the recent Wuhan Flu bill, but Congress larded it down to the tune of appx. $8.4 billion? There’s no telling what’s hidden in that bill.
