Republicans don't want Unemployment benefits raised. Democrats won't vote for it if increased unemployment benefits aren't raised.
It's dead in the water. You're on your own.
As is all too typical among you dems.……………. Wrong.
I understand how there is always a need to keep your talking points as close to a bumper sticker amount of content but you seem to never include the real actual content of whatever it is you are crying about at the time.
For example, you said right here;
"
Republicans don't want Unemployment benefits raised."
What was ACTUALLY reported in the news was;
"
The concern.... is that the current version of the bill could pay workers more in unemployment benefits than they'd make in salary, by sticking a $600 per week payment on top of ordinary benefits..."
Not the mere "increase" of benefits as you would have your mind numb li bby cohorts believe, huh?
You also stated;
"
Democrats won't vote for it if increased unemployment benefits aren't raised."
No one is opposing the raising of benefits. What
is being opposed is the attempt to transform "benefits" into "jobs" that pay people more to NOT work. A liberal dream to be sure but not desirable to anyone interested in trying to support themselves and others who can not. We could make it where peoples whole salaries were paid but to make it where they make more for sitting on their asses all night playing video games, eating Cheetos and pulling orange crush right out of the neck of a 2 liter bottle in mommies basement then sleeping all day is just fukin' stupid.
There is a truth for ya.
Now that you see how it can be done perhaps you will give it a go...……..
But I ain't bettin' on it......
