With interest rates for the United States being at ZERO, this is the time to do our decades long awaited Infrastructure Bill. It should be VERY BIG & BOLD, Two Trillion Dollars, and be focused solely on jobs and rebuilding the once great infrastructure of our Country! Phase 4"We have to look at election reform," Schumer said."How are people going to vote? ... And we may have to look at how Congress is going to vote.
Schumer said infrastructure investment is a key tool for stimulating the economy, but it might come further down the road. "I think that the first job is to beat this health care crisis and deal with people who have their immediate problems," he said."I would not at all be adverse to an infrastructure package. ... It's a longer range view of getting the economy back, but job No. 1 is get those materials to our hospitals and health care workers, get those unemployment checks out."
As he stays sheltered in place
Damn country can't make enough ventilators. Save the votes, Schumer and give the research scientists working 24/7 that hazard pay.
And reduce pay for Congress and politicians,
I’m sure he listened.
How about everyone keeping the supply lines of food open -- the truckers and the grocery store workers and the delivery people.
How about jails. Correctional officers are on frontline too.
Frontlines should include all grocery and delivery workers.
but this only applies to federal workers👎🏼
Why federal workers? All workers still at work deserve hazard pay
As a power linemen, when we were repairing city’s from storms that destroyed there elect. systems, we would get double time for 16 hours then 8 straight time , to sleep ! This more important than storm work! They need a good union rep!
Like himself? Oh, no, I know! Like the $75,000,000 given to NPR!
SenSchumer The only hazard to America… Is you… SenSchumer
And all the personnel working in jails and prisons.
Is Chuck going to open up his own check book? He is always so happy to spend other people's money.
this should include people working at grocery stores
Forget it Chuck ... it would have to be ra45’s idea first and foremost.
How about everyone that is working the frontlines?
They should!
PBS/NPR took $75M from the emergency $2 trillion bill. This is what America did NOT get because of PBS/NPR: 300,000 Covid-19 test kits 4,166 ventilators 21,428 hospital beds 192,307,692 masks 357,483,318 pairs of medical gloves 12,500,000 bottles of hand sanitizers
SenSchumer How the fuck is a pay raise going to help solve the CoronaVirus crisis? You're trying to buy votes while Americans are suffering and dying. PureEvil
Senator Schumer they don’t want hazard pay. They just want the things they need to keep their patients alive and to keep themselves alive.
Schumer has offered his pay to support this initiative. Wait, he’s being generous with our money again...
SenSchumer Of course , Senator . They should be get it .
To all my EMT ,Paramedic , & EMS colleagues - while the profession is often missed in these discussions we can take pride that we have been 'frontline' on 9/11, Coronavirus, and countless points in between - Be Safe!
If true, then the Demoncratic leaders should forfeit their pay.... they are no heroes. Just heavy baggage on the American people
Should? You dimwit—you give it to people that don’t pay any income tax or even work, but you talk about “should”
SenSchumer How much money did get in the Care Act? 35 million while Americans can’t pay rent!
SenSchumer llc_pyramid Word is that Pyramid Contracting is Not.. repeat Not..taking care of it employees during this Pandemic... they need to either be sent home or be able to work 6ft apart, have mask, be able to wash hands, have sanitizer!Government Contractors OSHA_DOL HHSGov MSNBC
SenSchumer They should not have to live in their cars or in tents to keep families safe, they need ppe trump is doing nothing SOMEONE needs to do something
SenSchumer Enough ass kissing chuck go make Pelosi a drink
SenSchumer So, why are you & Pelosi STILL DOING NOTHING?
MAKE IT HAPPEN.
SenSchumer Sure. Let’s just borrow from China & then one day when we can’t possibly pay it back, they’ll do to us what they’ve done to the Africans - take over and treat them like 2nd class citizens. Politicians in those countries sold their citizens down the river, too, just like ur doing
SenSchumer I feel like anyone that’s forced to work should be receiving hazard pay I work for an emergency restoration company I’m still working a lot of my company is getting sick tho and being quarantined we went from 60 of us to 20 or so left in Detroit Michigan
pfab73 How about truckers, grocery workers, water employees, garbage people,sewer workers, police fire, ems, street workers, bank workers and everyone else still going to work every day to keep the Country running? Extra money won’t keep anyone safer or end this virus.
SenSchumer Why would i make 80% more if i was laid off and why isn't anyone talking about that? I'd love to quarantine and get a raise.
Wait didn't the heros of 9/11 get shafted by law makers when they started to see medical complications with no insurance?
SenSchumer Why does Congress and the Senate deserve higher pay than teachers, nurses or first responders?
Trump should self quarantine in Mar-a-lago. Permanently...
SenSchumer Let’s first see if you morons can get the first batch of money to the working people!
SenSchumer Gavin Newsome Praises Trump... share Youth_Dems LibDems SocialistBoomer TheDemCoalition college BernieSanders SenSanders Harvard Stanford JoeBiden
SenSchumer Schumer wants a piece of that money also. He took from the recently passed bill, He took from Jeff Epstein Weinstein. When ever he comes out with something its always for his personal gain
Don’t forget the EVS staff
SenSchumer Give them all a raise do healthcare is even more unaffordable !!! Go Schumer !!!
Grocery store workers too.
SenSchumer I'm a State Tested Nursing Assistant in OH. All of us in healthcare need & deserve hazard pay. I am without health insurance for 60 days until it kicks in. The extra $ would help pay 4 meds until then. My spouse was laid off yesterday bc of COVIDー19. Now 1 income for our family
How about Supernarket workers and truck drivers?
SenSchumer So in that spirit SenSchumer will donate his entire salary for the hazard pay fund.
Yes - demand that hospitals change their procurement procedures! Many of us have masks and PPE at cost but can't get them to the frontline!
SenSchumer example how these dinosaurs 🦖 who have been in power for so long, didn’t work on a plan for a situation like this, if a pandemic plan would’ve been planned years ago, these details would’ve been settled, and these extraordinary people would be in better work conditions 😑
SenSchumer Lest we forget, we called firefighters and first responders heroes during and after 9/11 and they were given shit after it was all over. Healthcare workers: put yourselves first. Don’t work without PPE. Your lives matter.
SenSchumer I truly love your likes!! Not very popular are you?
SenSchumer They do deserve more money, hazard pay ect... These State Governments that are responsible need to step up. Not a place for the Federal Government to dictate!
SenSchumer Ooh trying to but votes you really don’t care about the people all about votes nothing else
So should grocery store workers, janitors and delivery people!
SenSchumer Don't forget about all of the delivery drivers who are deemed 'essential'. Most would want to stay at home, not risk their health, and can't.
Please! I can’t afford child care when I’m working 24 hour shifts every day. I’ve had 24 hours off in the last 3 weeks. EMS is struggling. We were before this and it has gotten immensely worse.
SenSchumer Your President, President Trump is working on it!!
Your garbage is still being picked up uninterrupted. Despite the rising number of infected sanitation workers, we still showing up daily.
SenSchumer Is it true the Russians sent med supplies to Italy that was 80% useless & broken?Anyone want to check Putin's plane load USA just received from him?
How about us postal workers? Oh wait, we didn't get any help out of that 2 trillion magic money
SenSchumer Your my hero... thanks for fighting for windmills and that’s the most important thing right now! Keep up the fight for windmills, we are all supporting u! TOTAL POLITICAL HACK!
SenSchumer Agree but you have been getting paid for 39 years for doing nothing. Let’s claw back your salary and give it out .
SenSchumer This is a terrific idea.
SenSchumer How about u make all their loans interest free?
SenSchumer Some are getting cuts to pay and benefits, terrible!!!!
SenSchumer Chuck Schumer doest give a damn about anyone but his self interest. If he did he wouldn't have allow Pelosi to dictate to him when he had already committed to passing the senate bill. Hes definitely no a leader
SenSchumer An angry Jon Stewart demands Congress compensate 9/11 responders. who will be fighting this time?
all the immigrant doctors/nurses whose immigration applications including green cards are sitting in trenches should be fast tracked.
SenSchumer Our nurses and doctors are true hero's
SenSchumer Food supply essential workers too. Where is our extra money
SenSchumer Aren’t you worried about pay inequality? I mean if the doctors get more hazard pay, while everyone else gets fired, the wealth gap magnifies. The rich get richer, as they say. Man what a conundrum for people who bleed socialism daily.
SenSchumer Filthy Scumbag Schumer
SenSchumer amen ! :) my mom dont know she one of us and she wondering outside and such keeps doing that idk why she asked me if I want to go outside for a walk she the one that told me to stay Quarantined she be off and on :x and stephen be in hiding self quarantined also from Heather
SenSchumer What's in it for Schumer ? $$$
SenSchumer
SenSchumer And you should get canned.....
SenSchumer As a human being, I fully agree with you; but go try getting the inhuman evil republicans to agree to that.
SenSchumer Yea why did you exclude them from stimulus bill, since you care so much
SenSchumer People who are working in the hospital that aren’t medical staff should get hazard pay too. They are employees still in the building that are essential & they are being subjected to covid-19 just like the medical staff is.
SenSchumer I agree
SenSchumer Everybody likes the doctors and nurses. NOBODY likes chuck schumer.
SenSchumer This country needs a change these pos who have hijacked our country for over 30 years need to go.
SenSchumer Keep up! Trump is discussing that now while you’re tweeting. SHEESH
What defines a front-line worker. If I see a COVID patient as a physician consultant in the hospital, do I get hazard pay?
Don’t forget the pharmacy employees and postal employees who are at risk everyday. They bring normalcy to our lives and provide a vital service. Watch what will happen if either shuts down.
Add grocery store and warehouse associates and I’m in there!
You know that’s a great sentiment but the people who support us deserve hazard pay too. EMT’s, NAC’s, janitorial staff etc.
GetMePPE By way of RichardPrince
Yet we sold our PPE and are talking about stupid illegal drugs
Bravo, Chuck!
At minimum, they should not be falsely accused of stealing their own rescue supplies.
