As Democrat leaders in both chambers of Congress continue to stall progress on the passage of another COVID relief package, Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) added another provision to the “liberal wish-list.”
A member of the “squad” in the House of Representatives, Rep. Tlaib indicated on Thursday that the next COVID stimulus package should include provisions of the Green New Deal, advocating for Congress to put “people before corporations.”
The challenges we face today—inequality, racism, climate change, and more—are interlocking. Our response must be too. That’s why I stand with the frontline leaders occupying the DNC today. We need a #COVID19 recovery that puts people before corporations! #BidenBeBrave https://t.co/tFITPwg5nD

Democrats have held COVID relief hostage for months, as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) refuses to include Speaker Pelosi’s wish-list of items unrelated to COVID-19.
“It’s clear that Democrats like Rep. Tlaib are playing partisan games with COVID relief instead of focusing on funding vaccine distribution or relief for the workers and small businesses who are struggling in Michigan during Gov. Whitmer’s latest shutdowns,” said Tori Sachs, executive director of Michigan Rising Action.
While the progressive congresswoman advocates for more partisan line-items in COVID relief legislation, Michigan faces one of the strictest COVID-19 lockdowns.
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s (D) draconian shutdown order was rebuked by the state’s Supreme Court for overreaching gubernatorial authority.
While she keeps her state locked down, forcing numerous businesses to close their doors, Gov. Whitmer also advocated for Congress to pass another stimulus package as families and businesses in her state face economic burden due to her executive overreach.

It is very common behavior for Democrats to hold needed legislation hostage so they can add items that can not make it on their own merit. Then with the help of the media they turn around and blame Republicans for not passing the needed legislation. This is just part of the complete lack of ethics of the Democratic Party.
