There was nothing in the bill to prevent corporations from buying back their stocka, giving bonuses and pay raises to executives, nothing protecting employee jobs, nothing providing for sick pay/family leave, insurance coverage. It was all for corporations and stock holders, and noting for the employees and their families.

We will NOT repeat the mistakes made in 2008.

McConnell didn't get 1 democrat!

Republicans, who needed 60 votes to move forward on the bill, weren't able to win over any Democrats to proceed, meaning that no aid will flow to the economy — including checks to individuals, help for small businesses and bailouts for big corporations — until a deal is reached.

Democrats said they dissatisfied with worker protections in the bill, which was written by Republicans, and say the rules on corporate bailouts are too lax.
