Rep. Sharice Davids of Kansas says she was among the few Democrats to vote against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s $3 trillion coronavirus relief bill because it faces a such a small chance of making it through the Republican-controlled Senate.
Davids was among just 14 Democrats to vote against the bill, saying it was too partisan and too broad; Davids has repeatedly called for aid to states and cities facing revenue losses from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The bill would provide $5.2 billion to Kansas over two years and another $5.1 billion to city and county governments in the state.
