Pelosi: Republicans Are ‘Missing in Action’ on Coronavirus Relief

EXCERPT:

PELOSI: “And of course our bill, as I said, it's lean and mean. It's exactly what we need. It sounds like a lot of money, but the challenge is a big one. In 100 days — it took 100 days, 100 days to get to one million infected people in our country. It took half that time to get to 200. It took a quarter of that time, 27 days, to get to three million and it took about 16 days to get to four million. This thing is accelerating. Accelerating. Why? Because delay, denial, distortion. And now, finally, hopefully, we will be able to get a bill that holds this in check so we can open our schools and our economy with testing, tracing, treating. We can put money in the pockets of the American people. We can honor our heroes with state and local funds, and they're missing in action."
