$340 Billion Surge In Emergency Funding To Combat Coronavirus Outbreak
(This appears to be a rough outline)

I'd like to see future bills of this type be discussed openly with a roll-call vote. Too much pork was put in this to get passed. Both Democrats, Republicans and President have pork in here.

With the constant changes, those that voted couldn't possibly have read the darn thing. Massie was right to try to force a roll call vote in person. Many citizens in essential areas are at risk and forced to work. Our lazy politicians that vote on things they don't even read should be considered essential to being there when voting on such a large package. There should have been real discussion and understanding on what they are voting for.

You're right. This type of research should be funded by a fat kitty of money, none of which appears for research in the 2 trillion package, though I have not seen the approved bill, just news snippets.
