Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., told Fox News that he will buck party lines and vote in favor for Democrats’ new $3 trillion coronavirus relief package, known as the Heroes Act. There's a lot in the bill that I disagree with, but Mitch McConnell refuses to bring up aid to state and local governments. GOP leadership has been wary of the fifth round of coronavirus relief legislation. House Democrats' coronavirus bill earmarks $1 million to study 'disinformation'Republicans like King have blasted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Democrats for adding in provisions on illegal immigration, restrictions on ICE and absentee ballots. And she's been given that opportunity because McConnell won't talk about aid to state and local governments,” King said.
