Wednesday Open Thread | The Demons Are Coming After Healthcare…AGAIN | 3CHICSPOLITICO

Nancy Pelosi (@TeamPelosi) Tweeted: Days before the election, Republicans aired ads pretending to defend health care. Today, they have a new message: people don’t deserve quality health care and insurance companies should discriminate against people with pre-existing conditions. We *will* fight tooth and nail. https://t.co/wD2crNucfa https://twitter.com/TeamPelosi/status/1110370176401330176?s=17

Lies about numbers and shows his racism in plain sight!

President opposes additional disaster aid for territory, saying funds were out of proportion to what mainland states got

Donald Trump told a meeting of Republican lawmakers that hurricane-devastated Puerto Rico had gotten too much rebuilding money compared with mainland states like Florida and Texas, hardening his opposition to further disaster aid for the US island territory.

Trump’s ardent opposition to additional Puerto Rico funding sets up a showdown with House Democrats, who insist that a $13bn to $14bn disaster aid package that’s a top priority for southern Republicans won’t advance without further aid for the island.

Congresswomen Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez gave an impassioned speech during a committee hearing in response to Republicans push-back on her climate change policy, The Green New Deal. ‘You want to tell people that their desire for clean air and clean water is elitist?’, she yelled. ‘Tell that to the kids in the South Bronx which are suffering from the highest rates of childhood asthma in the country … You’re telling those kids that they are trying to get on a plane to Davos?

Trump Complains to Congress About Providing Aid to Puerto Rico

Earlier this month, Puerto Rico’s government cut the island’s food stamps program by 25 percent, bringing it back down to the level it was at before the hurricane. An astonishing 43 percent island’s population currently relies on food stamps. After the House passed a bill in January allocating $600 million in emergency funding for food stamps in the territory, Trump called the bill “excessive and unnecessary.” It was also announced today that HUD will look into whether the White House has prevented disaster relief funding from reaching the island, in light of multiple private comments from Trump about his unwillingness to continue providing aid. “We are in the process of looking into whether there has been any interference and do plan to report back to Congress on what we find‚” Jeremy Kirkland, counsel to the HUD inspector general’s office, said in response to questions from Rep. Maxine Waters in front of the House Financial Services Committee.
