“Joe Biden’s so-called ‘relief’ bill is full of pork and unrelated projects that have nothing to do with combatting COVID in the Keystone State. While Pennsylvanians need actual COVID relief to return to normal life, Biden can only resort to gaslighting them into believing that his bill is anything more than a progressive wish list.” -RNC Spokesperson Michael Joyce
