This act will show your support for the American people who are in need of emergency lifelines like food, shelter, unemployment benefits and small business relief during these challenging times.

We will see how many House GOP Members vote Against giving

Someone should inform Mitt that if he wants favors he should at least not keep insulting the guy you want the favor from.

At this point let the next President sign the damn bill (assuming they could pass it again).

“”you’ve made your position clear and rejecting it quickly will allow those in favor to act before it is too late.””

Manchin, again.

Yet the left continues to use him as a fake Conservative when he does whatever Nancy and Chuck tell him to do.

Manchin recently claimed Joe Biden doesn’t have it in his DNA to lie!

These fairy tales and liars must be exposed for the Frauds they are.

The word “bipartisan” is synonymous with the words “graft” and “corruption”.

Bi-partisan, right. It is always the same weak-kneed, spineless “republicans”: Romney, Collins, Murkowski, and now Cassidy.

Mitt the Twit will do or say anything to disparage Pres. Trump...you know the person that backed you during the campaign. I’ll bet Mitt will have a real love fest with the Biden administration.

Romney is one of those people that looking at him from the side he is only paper thin.
