The Trump Administration wants to pass another round of COVID-19 stimulus before they go on break. Texas Senator Ted Cruz says House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has other ideas. Cruz told CBS' Face the Nation Pelosi isn't trying to help America recover.
"Her objectives are shoveling cash at the problem and shutting America down," the Texas Republican said. "And in particular, you look at the $3 trillion bill she's trying to push, it's just shoveling money to her friends and not actually solving the problem. Our objective should be Americans want to get back to work. They want to be able to provide for their family."
Cruz says Pelosi should be more focused on helping you recover economically.
"A recovery bill would suspend the payroll tax, which would give it a pay raise to everyone in America who's working. That actually gets people back to work," he said.
