The Republican holding out is not happy with the amount of money I. This bill. It doesn't have to do with main Street tax payers - it is something with unemployment benefits. Apparently, some of those on unemployment due the Coronvirous would get a promotion while on unemployment and their pay check amount. Sounds crazy but that's what I got out of the media report. Let's hope deserving people get this stimulus package.
