Showing Original Post only (View all)Senate Majority Leader Schumer rejects so-called republican moderates' 'take-it-or-leave-it offer' [View all]
Michael McAuliff @mmcauliffNEWS: Schumer throws cold water on GOP group of 10's $600B COVID proposal: "They should negotiate with us, not make a take-it-or-leave-it offer," Schumer tells me. "It doesn't have any state and local money in it. Look at that, just as one thing."
Story coming soon.

Schumer says Dems will go ahead with reconciliation if they have to, but says Republicans can still make it bipartisan, as they did in the past passing earned income tax credits and the State Childrens' Health Insurance Program.
