Good reporting here from Jake. Democrats haven’t moved an inch from Pelosi’s HEROES Act.. ... which was a nonstarter for a dozen moderate *House Democrats* who attacked it as a political exercise with no chance of becoming law. All relief is being held up for this.https://twitter.com/JakeSherman/status/1290628868789940225 …

Moderate Democrats actually ran ads touting votes *against* Pelosi’s bill. They didn’t think the pandemic was the moment to demand “diversity reports" for cannabis businesses. But that bill is the Democrat’s red line now if you’re wondering if they actually want a deal.

Pelosi says they won't move without another massive infusion for state and local govs -- Pelosi said "there will be money, Republicans just don't know it yet." (per
@heatherscope) But state and locals have spent less than 25% of what was passed in Aprilhttps://www.cnn.com/2020/07/29/politics/treasury-report-state-local-funds/index.html …Show this thread -

Pelosi's Coronavirus relief bill includes requirements for studies on diversity and inclusion in the cannabis industry. She even DEFENDED it in a press conference. There is where Democrats are -- absurd cannabis priorities over families in need.https://twitter.com/SRCC/status/1289235882487296002?s=20 …

Pelosi's ransom demands on COVID relief also include particularly egregious changes to election systems. First, legalizing nationwide ballot harvesting. https://wsj.com/articles/a-vote-by-mail-nightmare-11590189749 …… Second, ending voter ID laws in ALL states.https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/05/23/fact-check-houses-heroes-act-changes-state-voter-id-requirements/5203381002/ …

Don’t forget the bail out money for the cities that have allowed violent protests over the last several weeks! They want that too! Ridiculous.
