[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some developments: (thread) [twitter]https://twitter.com/mkraju/status/1450577070032134147?s=21[/twitter][/quote] Much much better. 1-year extension on Child Tax Credit [b]4-week Paid Leave[/b] No Community college Medicare expansion included ACA expansion included Universal pre-K included No mention of subsidized childcare [/quote] Right because daycares wont accept infants until at least 6 weeks. This is why I am having such a problem with our legislators right now. 6 week minimum is the only realistic minimum due to REGULATION ALREADY IN PLACE. In MD its illegal. Also Ive heard rumblings that there will be a 100k total household limit for any paid leave which is BS. Manchin and Sinema are literally playing hardball to whittle these benefits down when the irony is that all of his constituents will get these benefits in full. Democrats negotiate to get red states and LCOL areas more benefits compared to the voting block that actually votes for them and Democrat voters have no choice but to continue to vote D bc there is no way I am voting for more pro-business, pro-coal, anti-regulation Republicans. It is just show-boating because at the end of the day Sinema and Manchin look like these great harbingers of fiscal conservatism and yet their constituents by and large are always under the income limits.
