Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is pouring cold water on a quick deal on a fourth coronavirus relief package, calling a laundry list of ideas floated by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) as "premature." "She needs to stand down on the notion that we're going to go along with taking advantage of the crisis to do things that are unrelated to the crisis," McConnell told The Washington Post.
McConnell added that "what's really happening here is, she's looking for a way to jam us."
McConnell's comments come as Pelosi has quickly pivoted to brainstorming a fourth coronavirus bill less than a week after Congress passed the roughly $2.2 trillion stimulus bill. Pelosi, in a statement to the newspaper, argued that she hoped leadership in both chambers could work together but that victims of the virus "cannot wait."
Some of the ideas being floated by Pelosi, including a massive infrastructure plan and reversing the 2017 tax law's $10,000 cap on the state and local tax (SALT), have been panned by McConnell.

Nancy seems energized by this health crisis but she doesn't seem to be focusing on helping those infected.

Is she still telling people to go to Chinatown for a good time? Is she still riding Trump for closing off China Trac?

Quit with the spending, all of you in the capital. Nancy tried to cram every Marxist piece of excrement into the last one. Time to be done.

“Victims of the virus can not wait” how many days did they wait while you were loading up the stimulus bill with pork that does nothing for the citizens suffering from this virus. Greed.

Nancy seems energized by this health crisis but she doesn't seem to be focusing on helping those infected. Neither did the last relief bill.
