'I didn't vote to overturn an election,' Connolly told Jordan. 'And I will not be lectured by people who did about partisanship.'

On Monday, House Republicans released a three-page memo of talking points listing their criticisms of the bill. The memo criticized the bill's unemployment benefits as giving people a raise for not working. It also called the package's Paycheck Protection Program loans"pro-abortion" for potentially funding Planned Parenthood reproductive health clinics.

Democratic Virginia Representative Gerry Connolly has accused Republican Ohio Representative Jim Jordan of"gaslighting" legislative colleagues about bipartisanship during House debates over President Joe Biden's $1.9 trillion COVID-19 stimulus bill. Specifically, Connolly noted that Jordan voted against certifying Biden's 2020 electoral college victory despite there being no evidentiary basis for doing so.

Biden has challenged conservative critics of the bill to specify what they'd like removed from his proposal. "Critics say my plan is too big. That it costs $1.9 trillion. They say that's too much," Biden said last Friday during his visit to a vaccine manufacturing plant in Kalamazoo, Michigan."Let me ask them: what would they have me cut? What would they have me leave out?"
