They had a plan to pay for it did you miss that part?So rushing a bill that the committee didn't get to consider and the democrats had no real plan to pay for made sense? Sounds to me like they rushed a bill that they knew wouldn't get passed because they thought it would make Republicans look bad.
Plus it sounds like the 21 billion in spending was aimed at far more then improving the VA Hospitals like you said.
And the money was going to be used for job training and adding veterans to firefighting and police jobs.
This was not russhed to committee republicans had allready made several changes.
You really have done minimal reading up on this.Murray said the bill had been extensively rewritten to include amendments by Republicans – eight of the 12 provisions in the bill were Republican-originated ideas. She said that the bill had even incorporated most of the provisions of a competing Republican bill, but to no avail.
