1.3B went to the state budget instead of small business relief [View all]

Apparently 1.3B remaining in the CARES act intended to support small businesses instead was taken by state legislature Rs to fill a budget gap. According to Senate president Jake Corman that was a better option than raising taxes. People are out work, hungry and desperate, but only not raising taxes, even if temporarily, are the only thing that concerns state republicans.

Disgusting...
