This is a great explanation, but the bill isn’t law until the President signs it, and he isn’t doing that. If he vetoes it outright Congress can override, but if he pocket vetoes it, it expires as it will literally be a day late. The new Congress will need to start from scratch, and if McConnell is the leader, he will have no interest as the Georgia races will be over. I hope it is enacted, even if the pork included is outrageous.
Stay tuned.

Ms. Donohue, Thanks for the reality check. I was about to post something very close to what you posted, but you saved me the time-Patrick

I don’t like to be a wet blanket, but unfortunately the checks probably won’t start going out next week as thought. But it makes good television.🙄

“Even if the pork is outrageous”. So you’re willing to sell out for $600? Seems like a low threshold to me. As taxpayers if that’s all we’re worth so the pork can flow, I say veto. We need to send a strong message to Washington.
You want to talk about pork, look at Title V that supports foreign governments. It’s on page 62 of the Bill.
