[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Drop local+state aid and fight for it under Biden. Pass UI + stimulus + government funding now.

[i]McConnell’s staff informed House and Senate leadership staffers that the group’s attempts to marry $160 billion in state and local aid and a temporary liability shield probably won't fly with most of the GOP, the Democrat said. Those two issues have become the primary focus for a bipartisan group of lawmakers that is trying to hammer out a $908 billion compromise.[/i]

Mitch already offered to drop liability protection if Pelosi/Schumer drop non-targeted state aid. The Democrats passed. [/quote]

Because they consistently underestimate how low he can go. I don’t know when they will learn.  [/quote]

This. They started out demanding $1.2K stimulus plus $600/UI and Mitch said - $1.2K stimulus and $300/ui. Pelosi said no. Now it’s a base of $0 stimulus and $300/UI from GOP. That’s after Mitch’s latest proposal said no UI at all.

Pelosi keeps losing ground with smaller and smaller offers. It’s not getting better. Settle.[/quote]
