• Multiemployer pension bailout lacking needed reforms.

• Permanently raises the minimum wage to $15 for any business that receives federal aid for COVID-19.

• Cancels all debt owed by the U.S. Postal Service to the Treasury.

Under the heading “Green New Deal priorities”:

• Requires all airlines that receive assistance to offset carbon emissions for domestic flights by 2025.

• Includes a $1 billion “cash for clunkers” airplane program where the Transportation Department buys fuel-inefficient planes from airlines in exchange for agreeing to buy new ones.

• Includes expansive new tax-credit for solar and wind energy.

Under “Student Loan Forgiveness”:

• $10,000 blanket loan forgiveness.

Under “Federalizing Elections”:

• Mandates how states must run elections, including the nationalization of ballot harvesting, requiring early voting, same day registration, and no-excuse vote by mail.

• Puts states at risk of costly litigation if they are unable to implement these stringent mandates ahead of the 2020 election.

Under “Immigration Provisions”:

• Requires the Homeland Security Department to automatically extend visas and work authorizations expiring within the next year, including those with Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals and Temporary Protected Status, for an amount of time equal to their prior visa, authorization or status.

• Mandatory disclosure on supply chain management.

Under “New Permanent Mandates”:

• Virtually rewrites the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program policy with no reference to COVID-19 and permanently disallows rulemaking pertaining to work requirements and eligibility.

• Permanent expansion of Obamacare entitlement, “putting the American taxpayer on the hook for endless and unchecked health insurance spending and would remove all incentives for insurers to reduce the cost of health insurance.”

NP lost touch with reality quite a while ago, does not represent, cares little or nothing about anything except what’s going on on her small minded world, and should be impeached.

In two to three weeks, the rates of infection should (hopefully) stabilize. The economy and many industries will still be in a tailspin, but the immediate need for "crisis" legislation will have passed.

At that point, the Democrat-Communists will have missed their chance to ruin America via legislative coup.

Mr. Trump, Be presidential and tell Nancy and Chuckie that you will veto their bull shit bill packed with a lot of stuff having zero to do with fighting this virus and let the country understand exactly why.
PORK.

PDJT can win the optics if they show a copy of the bill without the Dem pork. He needs to show how they are hurting Americans. A lot of people get their version of the world from CNNMSNBCCBSABC and thus will not even know this is Dems/pelozis/schumers fault...this is why PDJT needs to not a t like President Bush in this case...too important to care about that...get out the brass knuckles and show he is fighting for our sustenance.

Nancy, how many Americans have died in this plague since you started this BS? How many more do you intend to kill? What is the tradeoff between number of dead Americans and getting union representatives on airlines’ boards? Maybe the GOP should set up a scoreboard for Nancy's death toll.
