Moscow Mitch Admits Democrats Deserve All The Credit For $4 Billion Coming To Kentucky

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Tuesday presented what would seem like good news for the people of his state: Under the American Rescue Plan, Kentucky stands to get $4 billion. Cities and counties are set to gain as much as $800 million to help them recover from the pandemic.

But he made it clear that he had nothing to do with that money. In fact, he and every other Republican in Congress opposed the American Rescue Plan.

During a stop in Murray, Kentucky, on Tuesday, McConnell discussed the $1.9 trillion COVID-19 rescue plan that President Joe Biden signed in March. The senator said that so much money was not warranted at this time, when vaccine were widely available and the economy was recovering. (He also urged people in the state to get vaccinated during his remarks.)

“This doesn’t make sense. It’s wildly out of proportion to where the country is now,” he said. “Well, it passed on a straight party-line vote. Not a single member of my party voted for it.”

And he promises to fight just as hard against the stimulus bill.

McConnell vows 'hell of a fight' over Biden infrastructure plan

THE BIG DEAL-McConnell vows 'hell of a fight' over Biden infrastructure plan: Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) vowed Tuesday that Republicans would wage a "hell of a fight" over attempts by Democrats to pass a sweeping multi-trillion dollar infrastructure plan along party lines.

McConnell, speaking at an event in Kentucky, predicted that there would be a "big argument" about Democrats' plan to use reconciliation, which allows them to bypass Republicans in the Senate, to pass large swaths of President Biden's jobs and families plan.

"This is going to be a hell of a fight over what this country ought to look like in the future and it's going to unfold here in the next few weeks. I don't think we've had a bigger difference of opinion between the two parties," McConnell said of the spending package.

"We're going to make it hard for them. And there are a few Democrats left in rural American and some others who would like to be more in the political center who may find this offensive," McConnell continued.
