At this point in time if that is ALL that's in the package then just sign it.

If the abortion crap and FISA is in the bill throw it in the trash can.

This bill should be solely on this specific pandemic.

Seems just like a bunch of welfare giveaways that will do almost nothing to stop the virus or help the economy.

Where’s our payroll tax cut? That’s the only measure that might help normal, working people.
