Evidence isn’t opinion

Democrats aren’t allowed to attach a provision increasing the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour to their coronavirus relief package, a top Senate official ruled, according to reports.

Senate parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough, who oversees the interpretation of the chamber’s rules and precedents, decided Thursday evening that the proposed minimum wage hike couldn’t be included in President Joe Biden’s American Rescue Plan under budget reconciliation, CNBC reported. 

MacDonough had held private meetings over the last week with Democrats and Republicans, hearing their arguments for or against keeping the measure.

if they want to do it, they have to legislate it. Not add it to another bill for cover. And they can’t do that

A federal emergency declaration is helpful to states, but the total amount of federal assistance it brings is capped at $5 million.

The president signing a major emergency declaration expands the type of assistance the federal government can provide to states suffering through the effects of a natural disaster

As Cruz began his speech this morning, he wasn’t worried about jumping into both controversy and CPAC’s change in venue.

“Orlando is awesome!” Cruz crowed to a roar from the crowd.  “Though,” Cruz continued, “not as nice as Cancun.”  The crowd broke out into hysterical laughter.

Cruz’s speech centered on the one thing that liberals should fear: Unity and power in the Republican Party and the message the party needs to take to Americans around them.  As Cruz spoke, his manner and style were less that of a lecturing politician and more that of a charismatic preacher, giving the good news to his flock. Other speakers this morning have stood behind a podium delivering their speeches, as you’ve largely come to expect from CPAC, Cruz paced the stage, connecting with the members of the audience and filling them with hope for the future.
