Joseph Biden actually said...
Let me ask them. What would they have me cut? What would they have me leave out? Should we not invest $20 billion to vaccinate the nation? Should we not invest $290 million to extend unemployment insurance for the 11 million Americans who are unemployed so they can get by? While they get back to work? Should we not invest $50 billion to help small businesses stay open, when tens of thousands have had to close permanently? Pass the American Rescue Plan, 40 million Americans will lose -- lose nutritional assistance through a program we call SNAP, the old food-stamp program. Do we not invest $3 million -- $3 billion to keep families from going hungry? This is United States of America, for God`s sake. We invest in people who are in need.
