Sen. Cory Gardner threatened today to block the Senate from leaving for Memorial Day recess, citing the need to pass coronavirus legislation
Sen. Cory Gardner threatened Wednesday to block the Senate from leaving for Memorial Day recess, citing the need to pass coronavirus legislation.
When asked whether he would object to the Senate leaving, the Colorado Republican replied: “if they try to make a unanimous consent, you bet.” The move could prompt the Senate to take a roll call vote on whether to leave.“We have an opportunity to perfect the Paycheck Protection Program, and to pass legislation to help infrastructure, to create stimulus jobs, economic opportunity, we should be doing everything we can to accomplish that,” he said. “We need to get the job done.
Among the measures Gardner is pushing for are changes to the Paycheck Protection Program, the Small Business Administration’s lifeline for small businesses, and a proposal with Sen. Josh Hawley under which the government would subsidize business’ payrolls during the pandemic.When asked about Gardner’s threat, Senate Majority Whip John Thune responded: “that will be interesting.
“The problem is, we don’t even have all the money out the door yet,” said Sen. John Cornyn “I’m not saying there needs to be any sort of artificial delay but we got some lessons to learn from the first go round like don’t pay people more not to work than they earn working. That’s just a mistake. So I have no doubt we’ll pass another one.”
