The $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief bill crafted by President Joe Biden’s team and endorsed by congressional Democrats isn’t targeted enough, Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) said Tuesday after meeting with Biden.
“They really wanted to spend a lot of money on additional unemployment benefits for people that literally could, like in South Dakota, by the time you’re all done, you could be making close to $90,000 a year in unemployment benefits. That’s not appropriate and it doesn’t get people back to work,” Rounds said on “Fox & Friends.”
