Don't short-thrift middle class relying on stimulus (51K-75K doesn’t mean one does not need help); GOP (who helped 1% with tax cuts far larger than this 1.4K) can’t change income requirements now after LOSING an election! COVID is raging with new variants!

Funny, he didn't mention that down in Georgia. Democratic leadership isn't half as hostile with Republicans as they are with the working class of this country. Stop voting for these people!

Omg

should we exclude the ones (GOP) who voted against the relief bill?

Why didn’t they do the same for aid to businesses that have income over a certain amount?
