Tell me how any of this applies to the crisis?

According to a source close to the process on Capitol Hill, in order to move forward with any kind of relief package, Pelosi and her far-left Democrat caucus will demand the following be included:

 -Publication of corporate pay statistics by race and race statistics for all corporate boards

-A bail out on all current debt at the Postal Service

-Required early voting

-Required same day voter registration

-Provisions on official time for union collective bargaining

-Full offset of airline emissions by 2025

-Publication and reporting of greenhouse gas statistics for individual flights

-Retirement plans for community newspaper employees

-Federal $15 minimum wage

-Permanent paid leave

-Study on climate change mitigation efforts

The provisions will apply to the companies and business rescued by bill.

perhaps not as bright as you think you are, but a lot brighter than me or Donald Trump and certainly bright enough to know that the only game in town (DC) at the moment is the senate negotiations and Pelosi's bill is absolutely nothing more than a pressure tactic in the negotiations.  She, you, l and most of the non-Neanderthals on this forum know it!

Too bad in a way because a lot of the stuff on your list look pretty reasonable and fits right in with Carl Rove's old advice...''never let a crisis go to waste''.

and they are not letting it go to waste by forcing through stuff they could never get to pass normally.  They should be ashamed as should you.

Oh I left out a lot of ridiculous one-off earmarks.  The list above is the tip of the iceberg.

“This is a tremendous opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision.”  Utterly disgusting and despicable.

Carl Rove proudly said said it after 9/11 in 2001 while discussing GOP election strategy for the 2002 mid term campaign.  "Rahm" Emanuel said something similar years later and, if I remember correctly, properly attributed it to Carl Rove.

Actually I believe the Rove quote was more along the line ''there is an opportunity in crisis.''
