You do realize that every single Democrat senator voted to vote on that aid bill. But only five Republican senators did.
Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), Roy Blunt (R-Mo.), Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Bill Cassidy (R-La.) joined Democrats in voting to proceed on a floor vote.

Senate blocks $48 billion aid package for restaurants, other small businesses
The Senate on Thursday blocked a bipartisan bill to provide $48 billion to restaurants, gyms and other small businesses hit particularly hard by the pandemic. Senators voted 52-43 to hold a vote on the bill, falling short of the 60-vote threshold needed to move forward. Just five GOP senators...www.yahoo.com
From the source,
The bill earmarked $2 billion for gyms and fitness facilities, $2 billion for live event operators, $2 billion for bus and ferry operators, $1.4 billion for small businesses located near border crossings that were closed during the pandemic and $500 million for minor league sports teams that took a significant financial hit due to COVID-19.
Republicans are being hypocritical here, their cries about inflation, adding money to the economy, the deficit is all HORSESHIT. The truth, they don't want to do anything, they don't want things to get better, they don't want reduced gas prices or lower inflation, they don't give TWO DAMN SHITS about you and your financial situation.
President Donald Trump signed on Sunday evening a $900 billion pandemic relief bill into law that includes enhanced unemployment benefits and direct cash payments.
The measure is the second-largest federal stimulus package after the $2 trillion CARES Act that Congress approved in March.

2.9 Trillion dollars, with a T, in a few months, and now they want to bitch and moan about 48 billion. Please. How stupid do they think we are. And here is the thing, almost all of that 2.9 trillion dollars was dropped right smack into the economy, I mean in the form of cash payments and forgivable loans. It really was dropping money from helicopters. The Build Back Better bill is an actual INVESTMENT in the country. I mean we actually GET SOMETHING for the damn money, like enhanced productivity, more efficient infrastructure, both would address inflation.
Almost all leading politicians of GOP and DNC are Freemasons or satanists who care a shit about people
