"We need more funding – and we need it fast," said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on the Senate floor."To my Democratic colleagues, do not block emergency aid you do not oppose just because you want something more. We do not have to do everything right now." "One of the concerns that we have about the original $350 is a lot of money [is] first come, first serve, and many un-banked people who are under-banked or unserved on that basis ... don't have banking relationships ... in a way that others do," Pelosi said."So we said for the next $250 , we really need to have a percentage of that — $60 billion — that would go to something called the community development of financial institutions.
SenatorCardin and ChrisVanHollen please, no more corporate welfare. Workers, not CEOs and stockholders need relief.
WTF!?
& CNN business politico later showed the world what partisan hacks they are by changing headlines to falsly say Republicans blocked. Country B4 party! Ppl need to wake up to what media has done & continues2do. Some r openly trying to affect our election instead of informing
NPR should be ashamed of themselves for this headline. Do you not see the problem with this headline? You and journalism as a whole loses credibility when news organizations do this. I don’t think it’s worth whatever you are trying to achieve.
Cardin.. The lousy Maryland Senator who wants small businesses to fail! Shame on you Senator.
Trump admin must not restrict oversight, it's criminal. TheDemocrats GOP
What? Try that one again please.
Still playing politics. McConnell should be jailed for what he has done to our democracy. mcconnellforprison
Please encourage your friends and followers to apply for absentee ballots. Everyone should be able to vote by mail. EverybodyVotes
Republicans trying to act like they care about small businesses is a hoot. Lmao
BREAKING: Senate Democrats stall President Trump's $250 billion business virus aid package, demanding protections for minority-owned businesses and matching money for health care providers and state and local governments.
The program is working democrats are not howcouldyou
TrendyIdentity Oh, THAT blocked.
Cardin is correct. Small businesses need grants.
As an independent, I know loans go through banks and grants are funneled through Democrat created programs. Banks have more oversight. The public waits! politics. SmallBusinessRelief SmallBiz
Bottom line: Small business owners and Contractors need aid and they need it now!!! Come on
Of course he did, he’s not a small business owner. Sickening
Let’s understand... means testing average Americans out of a little stimulus, small stimulus to hospitals during covid19, and limited help for small biz? But open up the flood gates for airlines, NASA, KenCen, Wall St and monopolies? Our red & blue gov is corrupt.
DoNothingDemocrats 🤦🏾♀️ DemExit ✌🏾
krause_steph I have a small business- stop getting in the way- adequately fund the PPP.
Thank goodness. It was just another slush fund for Mnuchin and Trump
GOPigs and their treason slush fund. Every single time a Republican becomes POTUS they spend money like they have never had it, they go to war, they destroy democracy, AND DEMS ALWAYS HAVE TO COME BACK INTO POWER TO SAVE THE UNION. FUCK the GOPigs. GOP realDonaldTrump
Good for SenateDemocrats
Don't call it aid Our legislature? MIGOP GOP fighting for entities NOT people PeopleFirst Get Unemployment to these people McConnel_leads realDonaldTrump
DefundNPR
Senate Democrats are trying to help the little guy, and thwart repeated attempt to line the pockets of Big corporations. I'm disappointed in your stilted headlines...
ladydreamspeed Loans to small businesses while free money to big businesses
Fix your damn headline.
FelDakat Go Democrats!!!? Mitch McConnell still trying to hurt the Poor and Give more to friends Blue 🌊 Kentucky
voteGopSenateout2020....You can’t trust MoscowMitchMcTreason DumpTrump2020
senatemajldr has literally blocked EVERYTHING.
When your company doesn't get a loan and you get laid off. Thank Senate Democrats and the media like npr for letting them get away with it.
Dems are evil. Print that.
Moscow Mitch McConnell Still blaming others! Vote Blue 🌊 Kentucky
So sick of being the kids (American people) of a nasty divorce (all politicians) who wont compromise, care about their own power and are outwardly hostile and the “kids” suffer. And the lawyers (media) line their pockets. politicalnastydivorce
Grants are better for small businesses that is why Democrats didn’t support McConnell’s Bill. showing its true colors again
If you get your news from NPR you are already too stupid to understand that the liberals number one priority is climate change they could care less about the virus. Need money for Liberal pet projects like climate change. Claimant always changes liberals don’t know that though.
DemocratsHateAmerica
Delete this context-free garbage.
Duh! Democrats hate small business
Senator McConnell, know this for what it is, WE AMERICAN PEOPLE SURELY DO. BREAK THEIR BACKS, WE ARE WITH YOU!! Dont fret over it, there is a way around or over or THROUGH them. You knew they would pull some kind of KRAP, its what they are. YOU KNOW WAYS TO GET THIS DONE!
The problem was that McConnell was trying to push it through by unanimous consent, since the Senate is in recess with senators scattered all over the country. Democrats wanted more money for hospitals and for states to help with unemployment claims.
Mitch McConnell is a traitor to this country he don’t care about the working class only himself . Kentucky I hope will be smart in November and take him out of office so we get back to helping people the working class and not his rich friends like a lot congress should be out
They don't need loans. Small businesses need grants.
MoscowMitch and DirtyDonald the ImpeachedForLife CorruptionCrusader ALWAYS THINKS of SELF and REPUBLICAN GOP PARTY. AbortTrump COVID19
They co-wrote it. defundNPR
The GOP's idea of 'small businesses' are for rich guys like Sheldon Adelson and his hotels / casinos and not actual mom and pop small businesses, they actually make it harder for these mom and pop shops to get the loans
Wonder why..... “Democrats offered an amendment to add $100 billion for hospitals and $150 billion for state and local government in addition to the small-business spending, along with the restrictions” REPUBLICANS BLOCKED IT
Why not have two separate bills? Oh, they aren’t the ones who lost their jobs 😡
While we're printing money Let's just go ahead and print enough. We can bail out the world!
Hosp. voting... more help ... workers.. no mitch.

Hey Moscow Mitch, are you mad that they’re blocking your Kung from getting his hands on our money?
Moscow Mitch do all the damage you can. SenateMajorityLeaderMcGrath will be relieving you of your crime spree soon!
RiskyLiberal The Grim Reaper Mitch McConnell tries underhanded tactics to get more money to political donors. Fixed the Headline for you. Your welcome

No more welfare for the rich! Republicans can use the $500 million that Trump wants to keep for his family's business & corrupt associates.
Screw them. I'll just go back to work.
So every republican voter is cool with just cutting checks without knowing where the moneys goes?
Good. peopleoverprofit
do NOT change that headline, I see comments that just won’t admit the Truth. Fool us once with KennedyCenter, SmallBusiness will not be held hostage to SocialAgendas
You mean a SpeakerPelosi stunt
NPR is a political stunt. Why would ANYONE quote a Democrat? They were responsible for slavery, Jim Crow, Internment camps, Trail of Tears, smearing Kavanaugh and Covington Boys and basically bullying for 200 years.
Why not keep helping the people big business is not open the people canwork been out of work at least a month with no income copboards bare and the stimulus still have not met the people people lost income health insurance so now what this country needs to think of cost of GP
*Senate Republicans block a Democratic amendment to include help for healthcare workers There, fixed it for you
dupergramp Directing funds to community-based banks seems like a reasonable ask that would only be opposed by senators being funded by big banks.
Thank you SenateDems ! You are fighting for us and it is so appreciatef!
try trickle up economics. Give the middleclass the money. They buy more retail goods and services. The retailers hire more workers and sell more goods and services. The wholesalers hire more people, make and sell more goods and services. Everyone prospers including big business .
Most of the smaller small businesses won’t qualify either way.
Republicans blocked witnesses in a criminal impeachment case.
That’s cause pimps, hoes and drug dealers weren’t included
This is a war being waged by republicans on American citizens. Wake up
Why didn't you show a picture of a Democrat leader?
Kill Mitch McConnell
mitch needs to go. now.
Try: 'BREAKING: Senate Democrats stall President Trump's $250 billion business virus aid package, demanding protections for minority-owned businesses and matching money for health care providers and state and local governments.' That's how you do a fair headline. via AP
Write better headlines, NPR. Democrats are fighting for national vote by mail. The headline should be 'Democrats refuse to vote on Republican bill that excludes national vote by mail in November.'
TURTLE DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT AMERICAN PEOPLE. HE ONLY CARES ABOUT KISSING HIS IMPOTUS'S ASS!
Democrats are playing games during this crisis...not good at all.
Shouldn't this read, 'Senate Republicans block Democratic proposal to double the size of the emergency relief bill by adding $100 billion for hospitals and $150 billion for state and local governments?'
What Democrats are doing is a stunt. Senate Dems don't even disagree with it. They just want to hold us hostage for more of their pork.
Democrats at it again. They are desperate for an economic collapse.
Always siding with the left. DefundNPR
They aren’t interested in helping Americans in need unless there’s something in it for their radical agenda. Shameful. DemocratsHateAmerica SenateDemocrats COVID coronavirus
SHAMEFUL.
I don't care what team you're on. Our Congressional leaders are absolutely some of the worst in known History.
Must you *always* take the conservative framing with every story? You’re never going to convince them you’re even fair let alone carrying their water for them, so why do this?
Mitch trying to make Pelosi look like the villain...Laughable
McConnell will do what Trump tells him to. Trump could shoot Mitch McConnell in the balls and he'd still do his bidding. He'd find a reason why the shooting in the balls was necessary and say what a great leader Trump is for doing it. Republicans blindly follow, no matter what
This is ridiculous. They need to issue the FULL amount to the SBA for banks to lend to small businesses
Same way Mitch blocked $250M to beef up election securities. Sad during a pandemic it has to come down to this. No one pushes the Madam Speaker around.
Democrats have become republicans
Dems want oversight on the spending Not allowing it to be a give away to big biz
Wish the Democrats cared as much for the poor and Homeless American citizens
The entire govt is out of control.
