    We're literally forcing people to risk their lives by going into work in hospitals, grocery stories and pharmacies as well as delivering things and doing essential services like cleaning and collecting garbage. Why the hell should the political elite be exempt?https://twitter.com/asymmetricinfo/status/1242896951718416384 …

    If you think things are testy with AOC and her colleagues now, wait until she forces them to literally risk their lives in order to pass a stimulus bill. https://twitter.com/Phil_Mattingly/status/1242894692460703746 …

        Also, if health of congress is a concern, they can pass measures to vote remotely.

        Odd take from the woman who argued using fire safety measures in public housing isn't worth the cost.

        She is not the REASON our country is so fucked, but a definite example of the whole "Death of Expertise" thing. Idiots are allowed way too much square footage in the grand marketplace of ideas at the expense of smart people.

        Is there any doubt the bill would pass a recorded vote? This seems like a ploy to give Justice Democrats fodder to use against incumbent Dems in primaries.
