There’s nothing “vital” about renaming military bases; nothing “vital” about a pay increase for the military since they’d get the $2k too; nothing “vital” about immediate assistance to the Balkans. What is “vital” is that we help millions of Americans in need. #LetThePentagonWait

Gut the whole bill. Assistance is crucial. Money for bombs is not. #mitchbetterhavemymoney

I’ve finally realized that the American progressive “movement” is a grift too I have a BA in visual & public art and I’m a 1st yr physics PhD student but I can’t find PAYING work to help advance progressive policies in this country There’s no path for me here 😐🤷🏽‍♂️

Im tired of crucial and essential bills being used as a way to attach every neo con wish list possible knowing that people need the help, we need a CLEAN bill with only economic relief to the american people. #LetThePentagonWait #StimulusNow

The personnel could also get a pay increase with reallocating current funds. Just make less bombs for an example?
