Raymond Arroyo Calls Covid Relief Bill the ‘Lobbyist Relief Stimulus’

‘I think the president tonight is calling Nancy Pelosi and the Senate on this’

EXCERPT:

ARROYO: "Martha, this ends up being the lobbyist relief stimulus. That’s what this ends up being. And the President tonight is calling Nancy Pelosi and the Senate on this. I mean, when you’ve got — and he called it out — when you’ve got a billion dollars for the Smithsonian, $10 million for gender programs in Pakistan, why aren’t we giving that relief to these restauranteurs, as Deroy said a moment ago? 50 percent of the restaurants here in New Orleans are about to shut down. They urgently need help. This is the moment. And for Congress to fritter away this opportunity and to give payola to these lobbyists, it's disgusting, under the veil of helping the American people escape the Covid pain."
