Mitch McConnell needs to be voted out in November!

Pay The People & Keep Them From Being Homeless & Hungry.

If $600 a week in unemployment is enough to make you turn down a job, THEN THE JOB DOESN'T PAY ENOUGH.

[pointbreak]

There are no jobs to go back too. Restaurants closed, or operating at less than 50%

*They should give Americans 1200 a month until next year, Covid-19 isn't ceasing...*

[robinking]

The stimulus checks need to be 2k for every month. I’m on Ssdi & ssi in Florida & one time payment of 1200 isn’t enough

[michaelanderson]

billions to businesses people that had a job and know fault of there own are out of work get the shaft remember this in the voting booth

[cryptobunny]

We need straight stimulus for everyone. The rent relief or payroll tax cuts won’t help everyone.

What good is cash at my job if I can’t even go back to my job. I swear the people making the choices for us are really disconnected with what it is to be a regular working person.

[morningmorgan]

There are no jobs to go back to. My employer had filed chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Wish I had a month long summer recess. I am in the wrong profession indeed.

We need hazard pay...we are not ginni pigs

[jefferywicks]

I would think in the middle of a pandemic encouraging people to stay home would be a good thing.

[stevenlockhart]

Well 600 a week isn't even 40% of what I was making, and my job isn't coming back any time soon... So will I be getting even more?

[robertmoore]

Congress has been on recess most if this time . Like they need another one lol.

[kathyturner]

But wait I thought the economy was doing so well. At least that what Fox News says, but of course that’s a reality show now a days.

[CoolBuddyMathEquation]

I can’t believe we had to wait for them to get back from recess lol

[EPICLOGIE]

I'm eating a sandwich while watching this

[dougb]

How come George is so much louder than the sound on the video?

[shellyshirer]
