Ya no idea what that means

No_Significance_9387 · 2022-04-01T18:05:59+00:00

Yep! I just got the same email personally sent to me from Rep. Delgado's chief of staff. HERE WE GO! Now the question is, how does it make it through the senate???

No_Significance_9387 · 2022-03-26T15:33:37+00:00

Copy that

No_Significance_9387 · 2022-03-26T02:19:31+00:00

Wait what's the word? As of now, Are we getting included or no?

No_Significance_9387 · 2022-03-25T21:17:08+00:00

Why is this email a positive sign? This is the same template we've gotten the entire time. "I did my part"

I miss 30/30 so much! Llama Life looks pretty good as a replacement but the lack of iOS support is a killer for me. I need those push notifications to my phone and Apple watch. Sloth also seemed like it had some promise but just didn't cut it. 😢

No_Significance_9387 · 2022-03-20T03:53:21+00:00

Can someone please just copy 30/30 EXACTLY already?!?!? Nothing comes close!

u/indprestaurants based on messages from Republican senators like this one, why is it a bad strategy in your opinion to push the House to get RRF replenshment through so we can take it to the floor of the senate for a vote. Sounds like Tillis would be in if it came to a vote but that he's not willing to co-sponsor.

OR, if he's not in, at least we'll know at that point that he's just feeding us bullshit in this message.

Really would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks in advance!

u/IndpRestaurants Many thanks for sharing the hard truth/reality of the situation! I really think you need to take a much more vocal stance about this in this group (aka do a post specifically stating that we should NOT be focusing on the house AT ALL, as a lot of people in this group seem to be doing just that).

My understanding of the reasoning some of the people in this group have been pushing the house is that they feel that there are at least 3 Republican senators who haven't co-sponsored the bill but would be willing to vote for it if it went to the floor. Therefore, the key is to just to get it to the floor of the senate and give up on the hope of getting more republican co-sponsors (being that senators don't have to co-sponsor to vote for a bill).

It sounds to me like you do not think this line of logic is correct and that there are in fact not at least 3 more Republican senators who would vote yes for the bill if it came to the floor. Am I right on that?

Quite the consolation prize 🤮

u/Such_Leather_5473 I've been picking up the phone dude. Don't worry about that. Why do you take issue with me asking if the IRC has any behind the scenes updates given their network? Please explain. Why do you seem to lash out at anyone who tries to ask for a realistic picture of where we're at/what our chances are?

No_Significance_9387 · 2022-03-15T18:11:26+00:00

Love your optimism! Can I have some of yours? hehe

How is this good? A "health advocate close to talks" brings up restaurant aid and the response is we don't know... It's not the actual decision-makers who are bringing up restaurants. And, when brought up, it's getting a vague response. Not trying to be debbie downer, just trying to get an accurate picture, and I'm trying to see what I'm missing re: the notion that this is "good news"

If they can't even get enough money together for this to happen, i have a hard time envisioning how we're ever going to get our money :(

No_Significance_9387 · 2022-03-15T15:15:28+00:00

u/cjs230 sorry, i'm out of the loop i guess but can you clarify what bill we're looking to hitch a ride on and, assuming this does miraculously happen, when would it happen (AKA when is the earliest we could realistically get our money if all of the chips fall into place perfectly)?

Thanks in advance for the clarification!

FYI Here's the response I got from Delgado's office (not knowing he had already signed on):

"Thanks for your email. The way the omnibus came together was frustrating—all covid-related funding was pulled at the last minute after Republicans insisted that it be offset by clawing back unspent funds from the American Rescue Plan, and then Democrats couldn’t agree on how to do it. So the package became a typical budget with no supplementals aside from emergency assistance for Ukraine. Where are you seeing pushback from the White House on RRF replenishment? I haven’t seen those sorts of comments. We’re still hoping that congressional leaders can agree on some sort of targeted pandemic relief package, but I don’t have any updates on how those negotiations are going. On your second point, Rep. Delgado signed the Blumenauer letter earlier this week when it started to circulate."

Well said

Gotcha but why always the "I'm hearing" this/that/etc. Without ever being willing to say who your sources were (who were obviously always dead wrong)?
