What do you think the alternate GOP Covid proposal will look like?
Will it even by a good faith proposal or just a delaying tactic?

I haven't seen this outside of this site, but there was a link provided

45% of Republicans approve of the Capitol riots, poll claims
Almost half of Republicans support rioters who stormed the US Capitol building on Wednesday, a new poll claims.
Among Republicans who responded to the survey carried out by YouGov, some 45 per cent said they supported the rioters who scaled walls, overcame Capitol police, stormed Congress, smashed windows, and planted explosives.
As many as one-fifth (21 per cent) of all respondents to the survey were supportive of the Capitol rioters, according to YouGov, although only 2 per cent of Democrats agreed with their actions
The chaos, which delayed the certification of Joe Bidens presidential election win, forced lawmakers to barricade themselves inside congressional offices while Donald Trumps supporters ran riot within the Capitol Building.
