Objection Removed, House Corona Pork Bill Moves to the Senate

2043

The House passed by unanimous consent a revised coronavirus emergency bill [filled with Democrat pork], the Washington Examiner reported.

The legislation, which originally passed on Saturday but was sent back to the floor over a technicality, passed a second time on Monday.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi worked out the “technical corrections bill” with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin.

Republicans were and still are very concerned about the effects on small businesses. So, now they have a deal.

The bill now goes to the Senate and it could pass today.

Rep. Gohmert, who was getting pummeled, especially by his opponent, far-left Hank Gilbert. Gilbert uses ACT Blue, the Soros-Brock fundraising arm to shore up his campaign. The delay wasn’t Gohmert’s fault. It was clearly Pelosi’s.

Gohmert withdrew his objections, allowing it to pass a second time.

Andy Biggs and others explained the objections, which continue, on The Ingraham Angle last night:

Notice how Mitch is not part of any negotiations. He is scared to take a position. The administration and house are involved. He always cowers to Nancy’s spending bills. He does not want any bad press. That is no leader.
