President Joe Biden isn’t giving a pass to Republicans in Congress who voted against his pandemic relief package but are now touting its benefits to their constituents. During remarks at a community college in Cleveland on Thursday, Biden held up a list of those lawmakers, calling them out for their hypocrisy around the American Rescue Plan. “My Republican friends in Congress, not a single one of them voted for the rescue plan. “Back in their districts, they’re bragging about the rescue plan. They touted grants to community health care centers.”The American Rescue Plan also included the latest round of $1,400 stimulus checks, extended unemployment insurance and funding to keep small businesses open.
