Republican senators Mike Lee and Rand Paul slammed the Senate today for passing a $484 billion coronavirus rescue package while lawmakers remained scattered across the U.S.
Republican Sens. Mike Lee of Utah and Rand Paul of Kentucky slammed the Senate on Tuesday for passing a $484 billion coronavirus rescue package while lawmakers remained scattered across the country.
“Even more alarming than the money is the idea that one senator can stand on the floor and pass legislation spending a half a trillion dollars and have no recorded vote and no debate,” added Paul, who said he came back to the chamber “so that history will record that not everyone gave in to the massive debt Congress is creating.”Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell signaled it would be difficult to pass another major relief package by unanimous consent or voice vote.
Lee criticized Senate leadership for not consulting with the majority of members on the package and said the deal was not a “true negotiation.” He added that being away from Washington allowed Democrats to “politicize” and “stifle legislation with impunity.”
