Pelosi is playing with fire

Nancy Pelosi is engaged in a partisan game of chicken while American lives are on the line.

Just hours after Chuck Schumer praised the “great deal of bipartisan cooperation” in constructing a coronavirus aid package in the US Senate, Pelosi and House Democrats rejected it out of hand. 

Now Pelosi is insisting a list of unrelated progressive items be included in the coronavirus relief package, including fuel standards for airlines, labor union handouts and wind and solar tax credits.

NRCC Comment: “Airplane fuel standards, labor union handouts and energy tax credits have absolutely nothing to do with the havoc the coronavirus is wreaking on Americans. Nancy Pelosi’s disgusting display of partisanship is putting American lives at risk and embodies the deranged mindset of Washington Democrats.” – NRCC Spokesman Michael McAdams
