This vote is probably the best litmus test we're going to get for some time. Only the most useless loving assholes voted against the amendment.

You can tell it's a good one because both of the Delaware fuckos gave us a mask off no vote.

Those two are, theoretically, closest to Biden, and he couldn't even manage/try to whip them to vote for it. Which only makes sense if Biden doesnt support it.

With the current COVID-19 pandemic response policies in place (e.g., one stimulus check as
well as the extra $600 in weekly unemployment benefits and currently approved SNAP waivers
available only through the end of July), we project a 2020 annual poverty rate of 9.2 percent
(29.3 million people in poverty, using our definition).
◼ Without the stimulus checks or the currently enacted SNAP and unemployment benefit
expansions, the annual poverty rate would have been more than 3 points higher, at 12.4
percent (39.5 million people).
◼ The COVID-19 pandemic response policies reduced poverty for all racial and ethnic groups. For
Black non-Hispanic people, the annual poverty rate is estimated to be 15.2 percent with the
policies in place, but it would have reached 20.5 percent without them. For Hispanic people, the
annual poverty rate is projected to be 13.7 percent with the policies and 18.2 percent without.
Among white non-Hispanic people, the projected rates are 6.6 percent with the policies and
place and 9.0 percent without.
◼ The COVID-19 pandemic response will keep over 10 million people out of poverty this year,
including 2.1 million Black non-Hispanic people, 2.7 million Hispanic people, and 5.9 million
white non-Hispanic people.
◼ We project state poverty rates ranging from 4.9 percent (in Hawaii) to 14.3 percent (in Mississippi)
with the pandemic response policies in place as currently enacted.Without the policies, we project
poverty rates in those two states of 7.1 percent and 19.0 percent, respectively.

Hello Tom. This is Joe. I really need your vote on the stimulus and especially the 15 dollar minimum wage. This is my signature legislation, it was a campaign promise of mine, and to vote it down would make me and the party look bad. We served in the senate together for decades, do me a solid will ya? C'mon man.

Don't allow your sensibilities to blind you to the possibilities corporations see in corporate fiefdoms. They're actively trying to make corporate-run counties in Nevada because they think there's plenty of opportunity to profit from an expanded company town model.
