Are there other critical bills that need to be passed that the direct financial welfare of about a quarter of the population depends on and a hundred percent of the population relies on to fund efforts against the pandemic and towards opening the country up?
If you have a bill of that level of importance that the Senate passed months ago and the House refuses to vote on and reconcile, I will apply exactly the same level of disdain.
Not really, it’s pretty clear there is an attempt at trying to deflect from the fact that in a thread about the “Rona Relief Bill 2” that the House passed a bill 2.5 months ago and the McConnell Senate hasn’t done their work and time is/has run out.

I disagree, you asked a question - it was answered. The House passed a bill well in advancement of the current legislation expiring. The answer wasn’t liked so … deflect. Pretty obvious.
The Senate didn’t do their job.
They took vacations while the American people are hurting. Hope they enjoy the 4 day weekend.

I offered to let you tell me what bills the House held up that the Senate passed, even though “all bills are critical” is clearly nonsense and you won’t take me up on it for some reason.
So many issues that arise in today’s political environment trace their way back to the United States Senate, either party.
The reason we have Confederate named bases and monuments and have had Confederate named ships is do to the longstanding tyranny of the minority. From the time following the end of Reconstruction until 1975, when the requirement for cloture was reduced from 67 to 60 votes, the Southern Senators generally had a working veto over Senate legislation. Thus they could force provisions requiring base and ship naming into legislation and many executive branch officials in that period were sympathetic to the south. Not to mention that the Senate blocked anti-lynching legislation.
EDIT: Just noticed and corrected a glaring error in the above post. I meant to put minority and put majority, which drastically changes the whole meaning of the post. Now fixed.
landlords have been continuously filling eviction paperwork in the courts during this entire time, just waiting for them to resume. its going to be an avalanche come Monday
I am EXTREMELY happy that I unloaded a couple of rental houses last year that I owned up in Pennsylvania.
I frankly feel as sorry for many landlords as I do for the tenants.
Yes, it sucks being evicted.
But from the landlords point of view, property taxes and expenses don’t stop because a unit is vacated and when a non-paying eviction protected tenant occupies a unit, the landlord is basically ■■■■ out of luck.
