We Need Targeted COVID Relief
|
|
|
Last week, the House Financial Services Committee held a markup of a portion of President Biden’s $1.9 trillion so-called stimulus package. We know there are sectors of our workforce still hurting—and Republicans want to provide support where it is needed—but this package goes far beyond that scope. We need to deliver temporary, targeted, and COVID-related relief to the people who need it most. Unfortunately, this package pushes partisan programs and ideas that are at the very least, unnecessary, and at the worst, harmful to the American people and the coronavirus recovery effort. Click here or on the image below to watch my opening remarks from this week's markup.
