Massive Spending Bill Provides $600 for Americans, Billions for Foreigners

President Trump must veto a massive $2.3 trillion spending bill that squanders billions of our hard-earned tax dollars on special projects for foreign countries.

American citizens will receive $600 in China virus relief.

Breitbart News editor Alex Marlow condemned the spending bill during remarks at the Turning Point USA gathering in Florida.

“And what’s in it?” asked Marlow of the spending bill. “A $600 cash handout for people. Now, people are generally supportive of some sort of direct cash handout, because of the government telling everyone to shut down, but I’ll tell you this. You know what would be better? Why don’t you allow us to open up our country and let people get back to work?”
