s Congress crafts a third taxpayer-funded coronavirus aid package totaling more than $1 trillion, it’s a good question to ask where some of our first monies were approved to be spent in this pandemic.
The short answer is … a good bit may end up overseas.
The title of the first legislation was the Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2020. President Trump signed it into law on March 6 after a bipartisan vote of Congress. The law appropriated $8.3 billion in initial response monies.
To put that into perspective, the first COVID-19 legislation exceeds the $1.1 billion appropriated for Zika in 2016, the $5.4 billion for Ebola in 2014, and the $7 billion for swine flu in 2009.

We’ll never get out of the hole that politicians keep digging deeper.
All that shouldcome out of the Speakers pocket. She wants to throw money away, let it be her own, not taxpayers.. Somebody ought to sue the miserable bitch.
Better to launder the funds to Biden, Pelosi and other’s families.
And we huddle in our homes while they do it!
Pelosibich would never thorw money away – It’s always used for buying votes – locally or globally.
Cut off all foreign aid immediately. This is an emergency right?
Would somebody who’s infected with the Kung-Flu please sneeze on Pelousy?

We’ll never get out of the hole we screech “Mine!” in. While we pay “our” professional betters to stand above it, and supervise us, as we dig deeper.
pelosi throws nothing away: every dollar spent in America finds part of itself in pelosi’s pocketbook – along with the rest of the looting democrat/GOPe class of traitors.
