The CARES Act, the $2 trillion coronavirus emergency relief bill that serves as Phase Three of Congress's coronavirus relief efforts, has passed the House of Representatives. It is the largest stimulus package in U.S. history and aims to provide funding for hospitals, and targeted relief for small businesses. The successful vote comes after hours of cantankerous debate, in which one unhinged Democratic representative was ruled " out of order " on the House floor.
Once the measure finally passed, the entire House erupted - in a positive way.
WOW and just like that, the motion is adopted.
Entire House on its feet.
Have not seen unity like this on a major,tough bill in a long long time.
The monumental vote was emphasized by the following photo. It's not often we see scenes like this.

I am very sorry to hear that.
President Trump will control how the money is actually spent. Just because it was appropriated doesn’t mean any of it has to be spent.
Toilet Tissue!!!
What a cowardly thing to do, blame one city.
Maybe someday you’ll see how silly that is.
The gubmint was gonna pass a YUGE bill and stuff their pockets either way.
You probably blame a bad BM on NYC.
Aren't they all unhinged . . . . . .
Have we verified if he got this out? If true, we all need to be thanking him instead of complaining. I’m still waiting for confirmation that the vote fraud abomination was pulled from the bill.
Yes, but what of the ballot harvesting? That’s the important part.
Bingo! I'm sorry to hear about your situation. Sadly, you won't be alone in this country.
Yeah, I heard.
I trust that the President is aware of it and has a plan to counter it, just like he overcame the fraud in 2016, and managed to keep and grow the Senate majority in 2018. (House was a lost cause thanks to all the uniparty stooges retiring at the same time, and the ballot harvesting didn’t help.)
Unlike the rest of the uniparty presidents we’ve had since 1988, he’s quite aware of the shit that’s going on and refuses to be part of it.
Giving into despair is one of the WORST things that we can do.
I’m not there yet, but I know people who are.
I’m sure that you don’t want to hear a patronizing celebrity-type “we are all in this together” gesture (networks, please stop doing this!!!) but I am sorry that you have to go through this struggle.
Thanks.
I have faith that I’ll get through it, somehow. But it’s gonna be an unpleasant few months.
Voice vote. Kind of like a firing squad where only one shooter has live ammo. You don’t know who really did the killing.
I’m sorry for your situation, and I’m very much aware many in our communities, hard working Americans are hurting financially through no fault of their own. Many small businesses will never return.
Haley “THE NRA HAS GOT TO GO” shouted down by the House Chair.
In a heated debate regarding a proposed economic relief bill to provide financial protection for American businesses and workers during the coronavirus pandemic, one Michigan Democrat demanded to be heard after her allotted speaking time on the House floor had expired.
Donning pink latex gloves, Rep. Haley Stevens shouted at colleagues on Thursday even as she was ruled out of order. Stevens’ voice grew louder despite House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer’s attempts to give her more time to finish speaking.
Sharing in the profession with those who have not come before you! Stevens said. Similar times of trying medical need, wars, and flus past, you will see darkness. You will be pushed, and our society needs you to stand together at this time! Our country loves you! To our doctors and our nurses, I wear these latex gloves to tell every American to not be afraid.
At times during her explosive speech, other members of the House attempted to shout Stevens down, but she kept speaking as the gavel punctuated her out-of-procedure action.
Over Two Trillion Dollars of borrowed money down the shitter, Hooray!
“Im not entirely happy about the final result, but considering that this shit has wiped me out financially and stolen what was left of my savings, its better than a poke in the eye.”
Sorry to hear that.
We won’t know who supported and who didn’t?
>>>Ill look for my check in the mail<<<
Maybe we will get the that ten years worth of Obamacare $2,400 Checks in the Mail too.
$24,000 plus another $2,400 Means my Wife and I can finally afford that Cruise to Italy.
Oh wait...
WuFlu won’t be the end of us.
But Congress might...
