used a budget process called reconciliation to pass the legislation in the upper chamber without Republican support.
"Here's a radical idea: majority rule. Not a single Republican voted to provide a $1,400 direct payment to the working class or a $3,000 Child Tax Credit. The Senate passed this important legislation with 51 votes. We must do the same with the American Jobs and Family plans," tweeted Sanders, an independent.

Democrats decided to use reconciliation after weeks of negotiations with party moderates and Republicans. At the time, progressives condemned the concessions made to appease moderate Democrats, including as lowering the federal unemployment benefit boost from $400 to $300 and applying stricter income thresholds to the checks.
The $15 federal minimum wage measure was also removed after Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough determined that it violated the rules of the chamber.for Democrats to pass Biden's $2.3 trillion American Jobs Plan, which would boost infrastructure, create high-paying jobs to facilitate innovation, and strengthen manufacturing, and the $1.8 trillion American Families Plan, which would allocate funds for education and tax cuts for families, without Republican support.

Fauci, Daszak, Andersen el tried to cover up the true origin of Covid-19 pandemic that killed millions just to protect their positions. They deserve no quarter from the rest of the human race. By funding &defending the CCP lab in Wuhan they have blood of 4m people in their hands.
Watch out for the climate change scam, Democrats are just shifting American jobs to other countries, like our oil and gas jobs. By shifting the jobs, it does nothing on climate change, or saving the planet. with the massive trillions of dollars in the economy, inflation not good
President Biden screwed up our borders, with the largest cases of child abuse, in history, there still wouldn’t be a Corona Virus vaccine, today, if Democrats was in charge, they wouldn’t have allowed operation warp speed. They love lockdowns.
Good, because America did not need it. Americans should have been back to work months prior to those checks. We do not need government handouts but to take care of ourselves.
You mean the $2000 that was promised never had to be compromised in the first place?
You can't sacrifice 100 million lives for a few athletes around the world. Olympic
Your right , Trump wanted $2000 cheques sent out
No, because republicans are the good guys! They would have voted yes if it was $5,000 or more. There is no limit to their benevolence
Uh. Stop giving away money
That's because the GOP doesn't believe in socialism & the redistribution of wealth like he does. Maybe Bernie should start redistributing some of the millions he & his wife have amassed since he's been in office.
Bernie needs to get off Twitter all day and do something besides Tweet.
Bernie is deflecting
BernieSanders is right. But I also would like to remind Americans that he did everything so HillaryClinton won't win the presidency. He start to convinced his supporters to vote for her when it was too late.
