Sen. Marsha Blackburn on Why $1.9 Trillion in COVID-19 'Relief' Isn't That

Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., says Democrats’ $1.9 trillion COVID-19 bill, among other things, has "only about 10% of the bill that actually deals with COVID and the other components that are in the bill, there's $350 billion to bail out the blue States."

Blackburn, today's guest on "The Daily Signal Podcast," also says that "Nancy Pelosi wants $112 million for the Bay Area Rapid Transit, so that people can get from San Francisco to Silicon Valley to work on all of those six figure jobs."

Why are Democrats pushing for these provisions in COVID-19 "relief"? Blackburn discusses this and more.
