Pelosi says stimulus talks are complicated by 'complete disarray on the Republican side'

CNN)House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Saturday continued her blame of Republicans for the stalemate in negotiations over another round of coronavirus relief funding for Americans.

In a letter to her Democratic colleagues on Saturday, the Democratic leader said that progress on the negotiations is "complicated by the complete disarray on the Republican side — as President Donald Trump contradicts his own negotiators and his own position."

She criticized Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Republicans for refusing to provide further funding for states and local governments, which she called a "significant obstacle" inside negotiations.

Pelosi's letter marked the three-month anniversary of the House's passage of Democrats' $3.4 trillion stimulus package, the HEROES Act.

Aug can be paid for by my tax refund I have not received yet, if I can only get it, but I can't get thru to IRS to find out why I have not received it seeing I sent my turbo return in Apr 2. And Sept bills can be covered by two months of the meager UI I get now. So good until Oct....

I am throwing apps out but to places that do not have high people traffic and being old, I am mostly rejected unless it is a customer service minimum wage job.

But, if I get my refund, I am good to go until Oct. I am glad to hear Pelosi has not forgotten. Thanks for the article.
