Today, both Senator Chuck Schumer and Senator Bernie Sanders​ attempted to get the Senate to act on the $2000 #SurvivalChecks​. Both times #MitchMcConnell​ objected! Why won't Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell​ let this vote happen? Standby for his proposal to hurt the American people in order to provide them these one time $2000 checks. #SurvivalChecksNow

House GOP Leadership was Absent from Providing $2000 Survival Checks

December 24, 2020 Video
On behalf of Speaker Nancy Pelosi​, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer brought a Unanimous Consent request to the House Floor to make the change to the bill President Trump requested. GOP Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy​ simply had to give a thumbs up. He failed to do that. House Democrats​ will now have to wait until Monday the 28th, after Christmas, to make this fix a reality. But we will do it.
