But... your own post includes a tweet from the Vice President bringing it up when in power, and referring to passing a bill.
Her Tweet was in July of 2020 when she as an individual had some power but Democrats as a whole did not and she had less power than she has now.
Now that her party is in charge and she's in a much higher power role, her talks of 2K reoccurring payments have suddenly shut down...
The Democrats talk the talk when they don't have the power to push for what they're talking about and then as soon as they have the power, they clam up about all that shit (she seemed all aboard the M4A train back when she was trying to run for president. I wonder what changed...).
Did we get out of the pandemic all of a sudden and no one told me? What changed Madame VP between July of 2020 and February of 2021 that The American People no longer need reoccurring $2,000 payments and now we're all good to settle on a one time $2,000 ch... I mean, a one time $1,400 check (assuming they don't manage to negotiate against themselves down again)?
