For the second time in two days, Democrats voted against advancing a colossal bill to mitigate the global health and economic crises caused by the coronavirus pandemic, fearing the bill was too friendly to businesses and not friendly enough for workers
Republicans lambasted Democrats for expanding the negotiations, growing angry and frustrated with them as the stock market continued its plunge and the projections of this week's initial jobless claims soared to the largest on record. But Democrats feared the bill was too friendly to businesses and not friendly enough for workers. "The fact is, we need to learn from 10 years ago," said Sen. Sherrod Brown, Democrat of Ohio, on the Senate floor.
The policy fallout is plain -- while the emergency efforts saved the financial system and, by extension, the economy, a similar scale of effort and aid wasn't made available to average Americans, at least not without onerous rules and regulations to overcome and strings attached. In the minds of Democrats, they largely got blamed politically for the vote, even though it was drafted and implemented under then-President George W. Bush's administration.
