.@SenRonJohnson If your job is gone & not coming back, how do you “reengage in the economy?” If rent is due & you can’t afford to pay it, where do you go? If your kids are hungry & you have no money, how do you feed them? What you’re arguing isn’t wise economics; it’s cruelty.

.@SenRonJohnson: "Why do our Democrat colleagues want to propose continuing $600 per week... that is preventing people, incentivizing people not to reengage in the economy so our economy can recover? It makes no sense."

Apparently @SenRonJohnson believes when enough people are begging for income -which he can only relate to work though he's never done much- then the magic of the financial markets' free govt monies will overnight create places to be employed, with health insurance benefits too!

Also, people know staying home is safer and prevents spread of virus. It isn't laziness; it is self preservation.

How much does that suit cost @SenRonJohnson ? The tie and shoes? How many suits do you have? And how much PAC money do you take from corporations? So you are obligated to corporations and not Americans struggling? Your words are empty...

As someone who has lived this lifestyle for 33 years let me tell you. You get laid off. You start to reduce lower your bills & lifestyle, ex food, cable, going out. Finish your fridge items. Use your savings. Take out your retirement. Then credit cards. Then state programs Then
