Today we go over a general narrative that has been arrived at about the removal of the minimum wage increase from the Stimulus package. We are explaining how the removal of the minimum wage increase does not mean that Democrats are abandoning the legislation. We also go over the fact that since the Democrats have such a slim majority in the Senate, that we are forced into a situation where Joe Manchin and Kristen Cinema have to be listened to in exchange for votes. We also go over how the stimulus package was in a must-pass situation and how it is very common for that to occur during the legislative process. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/saltyy/support
