There's no doubt the Dem house could have passed a stand alone $2,000 relief check bill, which the Senate would also pass and Trump would sign. But Pelosi refused to do so. Why? She doesn't give a crap about struggling Americans.
There was so much pork in that bill that it was oinking on their desks. It was $900 billion dollars, 6000 pages and they had 6 hours to read/review it before voting on it.
Example: Pakistan got $10 million for gender studies. Someone got a couple of million to study the Springfield (Illinois) Race Riot (this riot occurred in 1908), Smithsonian got $1 billion to create a women's history museum and an American Latino museum.
Just a few examples.
First off you appear to be mixing the spending bill with the Covid relief bill.
Nope, that's the total budget. What you mention appears to be 3 million each I believe.
But that's not the question. These bills were already signed. Then House voted to change the checks to $2000. Did they change anything else?
So excess spending crap isn't included. Help the American people. Period. Pelosi won't do it because she doesn't give a crap about hurting Americans. She's got hers, so her SOP is F everyone else.
It was a standalone book, you might want to fact check yourself, or just scroll up and read my post
Did they change anything else besides the checks?? Should I switch to another language or something?
You should probably learn to comprehend English, first.
Pelosi refused to ever pass a stand alone COVID relief check bill. Instead, she insisted on a completely unnecessary 6,000 page porkulous spending bill.

Irrelevant information. The bills were passed, signed, end of story. Then came the change to $2000. And considering how are you reacting, that was the only change, correct?
P.S. Lastly about the "article" - starts with a 900 billion dollar Covid relief bill, then talks about 1.4 trillion mixing the two. Needless to say I didn't need to read it.
P.S.2 Speaking of "porkulous", the 550 billion no-strings-attached corporate pork package of the March bill was just that. All absorbed, and of course layoffs still happened quickly after.
