I'm conservative leaning, but come on. Corporate bailouts without any rules would be bull shite. If Big corporations are begging for public money there should be rules around how they use it.
If a company takes bailout money, the rules should be:
- no executive bonuses until the $ is repaid
- no layoffs until the $ is repaid
- Move your headquarters from an international PO Box and agree to pay your fair share of taxes going forward

The legislation that was voted on was wholly Republican-written with no restrictions on the corporate bailout money
Here is the text on the $500B portion of the bill:
Direct Lending Limitations: executive total compensation may not exceed $425,000; prohibition of stock buybacks during the duration of the loan; borrowers must maintain existing payroll as of March 13.
BOTH DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICAN SENATORS WERE DRAFTING THE LEGISLATION ALL WEEKEND.
it was going to pass easily until pelosi flew in and blew it up.

2) Increased fuel emissions standards for airlines
3) Expansion of wind and solar tax credits

Only if there was a Michigan board that you could spend 25 hrs a day copy/paste tweets on.

Dems added a lot of pork like funding for abortions, forgiving USPS debt, they want gender and race minimums for the board of directors at public companies, and they want to set caps on executive compensation.
Way more than that but that is some highlights.
This is fricking incredibly full of disinformation. You should be ashamed of yourself you fricking hack.

Theyve talked about it too much to not give.
They want all their political futures over, and a riot. Keep stalling.

new emissions standards.
bailout for the usps (wtf?)
new collective bargaining legislation for private sector
tax credits for renewable energy.

Whole thread is full of misinformation. I don't like the secrecy of who they are bailing out and provisions. I would vote no too.

1. Senate Democrats & Republicans negotiated a deal that helps both workers and companies.
2. Nana you Pelosi came in with a laundry list of demands, demands she knew have no hope of passing and many of which have nothing to do with solving the crisis.
3. Senate Democrats got in line with the Party Line and killed the bill.
This is getting embarrassing.
Pelosi isn't in the fricking Senate. She, nor the House dems, had any say on the Senate bill that failed yesterday.
Christ people, this is basic Civics 101.
