117th Congress

[Tapate50]

In Sen Cruz' absence AOC has raised a bagillion dollars for blankets and food.
That go to Texans

It’s not a state vs state thing. You know that right ?

It's not. But people have long memories. About Ted Cruz and superstorm Sandy in particular. No one wants to see ordinary Texans go through what they're going through. I wasn't living in the northeast when Sandy hit. But I drove through a couple months later. The devastation was a shock.

Seeing garages full of cars underwater was creepy.

Cruz put case of water in trumk of car, Cronyn golfing with DT and Beto drivong across state to deliver water and supplies

Some Texans got electric bills up to $17,000 after the storm. How does that happen?

In a democracy voters pick the politicians, not the other way around.

Where's the $2k he promised I would get if he was elected?

[goldfly]

still being worked on cause republicans are awful and biden is still trying to "reach across the aisle" which he should stop trying to do cause they have no interest in unity or working together. they are still out there spewing the big lie

but hopefully they made sure they don't send it to anyone that "hates socialism"

i'm still waiting on the 600 from the maga idiots btw. we shall see if the other 1400 ever comes either

[57Brave]

and that has to do with the above sentence ...?

Voters picked him after mobile billboards drove around promising $2k if he was elected.

[goldfly]

i love the about face on caring about truth from the maga people lol

did they specify it would be within the first month ?
Did you really think this didn't have to be legislated ?

did you notice Sen Warnock is 1 of 100 and refresh my memory where he went back on his word

Do you know the legislative process ?

But again, the checks have absolutely nothing to do with the Sen Warnock quote

It has everything to do with his quote, because his quote celebrates people picking the politicians. People picked him after he promised $2k checks. The signs didn't promise he would work for it, or that he was one of a hundred, or $1400 checks. They promised $2k checks if was elected. We're waiting.

[nsacpi]

The Dems are convinced the stimulus checks issue helped them win in Georgia. Besides the unholy alliance of Sanders and Hawley there was not much support for this before the Georgia elections.

But hey if you campaign on something you should try to deliver on it.

I'm still hoping that other check from Mexico arrives soon.

[57Brave]

I voted for Warnock with the understanding he was one of 535 plus 1 that had to agree.
As I think anyone that has ever taken Civics in Jr High or Civics 101 in first year college.
Or are you one of those that only took statistics and business because you know, that is the only issue in life
(that was an assumption not a question )

If memory serves you voted for the guy that profited off of Covid
So, what is your point.. ??

One last update (I think!): We just hit $5 million raised for Texans across the state.

Thank you ALL for your collective action when people need it most.

Good for her.

Private charity is almost always more effective than public policy.
