Democratic Congressman Says Pelosi 'Making a Mistake' by Not Taking Trump's $1.9 Trillion Stimulus Deal
Jason Lemon Oct. 27, 2020. NEWSWEEK via MSN NEWS Democratic Congressman Says Pelosi 'Making a Mistake' by Not Taking Trump's $1.9 Trillion Stimulus DealRepresentative Max Rose, a New York Democrat, criticized Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday, arguing that she was "making a mistake" by not accepting the White House's latest $1.9 trillion COVID-19 stimulus deal. The White House, Democrats and Republicans have been at odds over a new round of economic stimulus since mid-May, when House Democrats passed the $3 trillion HEROES Act. At the time, President Donald Trump and Republicans largely dismissed the package as a Democratic "wish list." Then at the end of July, the White House and Senate Republicans put forward a relatively more modest $1 trillion package, dubbed the HEALS Act. Negotiations have continued from there, with the White House's most recent offer standing at about $1.9 trillion while House Democrats passed a $2.2 trillion bill at the beginning of October. read more |
