Pelosi demands increased unemployment insurance, Medicaid, and paid sick leave in stimulus deal

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a Friday letter to rank-and-file Democrats she would not greenlight a major coronavirus stimulus deal with the GOP unless it “greatly” increases unemployment insurance and Medicaid and expands paid and sick family leave.

Pelosi wrote to House Democrats as the House and Senate engaged in intense, bipartisan negotiations on a stimulus package likely to cost more than $1 trillion. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, has set up a Senate vote to advance a deal on Sunday, even as the two sides continued talking on Friday.

“Our committees are hard at work on legislation that is truly visionary, fast-acting, and evidence-based,” Pelosi, a California Democrat, said. “They are also engaged in conversations with the Senate about provisions that could be added to improve the Senate bill.”

  1. Pelosi demands the President to act. When he does she throws a wrench in the works to undermine him then says he is not doing anything.
    Has anyone looked into her stock trades. Oh, that’s right, her stocks are in her husband’s name and she passes all insider info to him because his trades can be kept secret.

  3. Just like the unemployment benefits Obama gave to everyone for what seemed like years. Unemployment benefits were so good no one wanted to go back to work - it was another welfare program. Pelsoi must be stopped by voters.
