They want transparency on any money going to big business and more funding/easier access for small business, education, child care. They are just trying to keep the Pumpkin & his toady Mitch from screwing the American people like they did with their tax cut.

Getting facts right is important. Like the fact that both Democrats and Republicans worked tirelessly to craft legislation to preserve our jobs and economy. Like the fact that Nancy Pelosi stepped in at the last minute to end debate on the bipartisan effort and introduce her OWN 1,100 page bill (crafted in secrecy) as the ONLY acceptable package. Like the fact that Nancy's bill places limits on aircraft emissions, includes tax breaks for solar and wind energy, gives $30 million to the Kennedy Center, increases union authority, etc., etc.. The fact that Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and key Democrat "leaders" are using sickness and death in an extortion attempt to enact their personal agendas. The only fact that gives me hope is the fact that most Democrats are just as appalled at this behavior as most Republicans.
