[QUOTE="Holliday, post: 191178, member: 954"] Thanks, Repukes ! [URL]https://www.marketwatch.com/story/house-republicans-block-bill-for-2-000-stimulus-checks-defying-trump-11608819760?siteid=yhoof2[/URL] Republicans in the House blocked a bill put forward by Democrats on Thursday that would have sent $2,000 checks to individuals as part of a coronavirus financial aid package, up from the $600 agreed to in the measure approved by Congress earlier this week that President Donald Trump criticized as too meager. “Democrats agree with the president,” said House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer in a press conference following the vote. “$600 is not enough for individuals who have been struggling…it’s not enough to provide the boost our economy needs.” Hoyer, a democrat from Maryland, introduced the legislation seeking unanimous consent, meaning that a single representative could block the measure. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, a California Republican, withheld his support, dooming the proposal. The House of Representatives will reconvene on Monday, Dec. 28th, when Democrats plan to hold a roll-call vote on the bill that will require individual representatives to vote on the record on a standalone bill that would increase relief payments to $2,000.
