Because they are from other cities and states but the illegals are bringing it across also

Alex Watts

That's when many people go out to places like the Lake, which is exactly what happened last year. I'm hoping many people will get the vaccine before going out, but I'm sure that if they're the type to go out and party during a pandemic, they're not the kind to get vaccines.

Norbert Giesing

I have no doubt. Co workers are already planning trips and party

Sue Evans

Its definitely possible. We haven't vaccinated enough yet.

This is completely ridiculous. Read all the fine print.

It is hard for me to approve something that my Great, Great, Great, Great Grand Children will still be paying for.

300+ billion to bail out mismanaged union pension plans and matching funds for politicians I probably don't support paid for with my tax money makes me livid. These are just two of many examples of waste in this travesty of legislation

Charles Dawson

Pelosi Pork Plan!

Robert Rodgers

Too expensive, not that the $1,400 isn't nice, but for what he spent on other countries and cities that don't deserve it cuz they let other people destroy, this is costing us taxpayers way too much money, plus there's a lot of people I know that still working. Democrats are screwed up our country

Will Mason

It is full of garbage spending that could not get approved on it's own. Non pandemic spending is rife in this bill that does nothing but devalue our currency.

stacy Hospital

No ,why should we pay for something that has nothing to do with the Covid relief !! They can always get another bill in the next 5 years . I believe people need to be able to vote where their money is going .Congress is spending so much money that we will belong to China soon .

Media’s white devil Open ur eyes

Because we’re too dependent on the government as a society. Jobs are everywhere and people are getting paid more to sit at home. A lot of Americans feel they are “above” most general labor jobs and out government supports them in turning it over because they have 100k illegal aliens per week now

Cornelia Risco

The American citizens are going to have to pay it back one way or another
