In the news today: The Biden-Harris administration faced pushback from activists on more than one front. COVID-19 continued to surge, and Republican politicians continued to say and do some of the worst things imaginable about it. Republicans also maintained their commitment to standing in the way of policy that would strengthen the economic recovery.
Here’s some of what you may have missed.
● Republicans say agreement on infrastructure is close. Except for transit. And broadband. And stealing COVID funds.
● Imagine the worst thing that could happen to anyone, then imagine Republicans laughing about it.
● 'We reminded her of the urgency of this moment': Immigrants meet with Harris following DACA ruling.
● Biden draws sharp response from activists, leaders he's telling to work harder on voting rights.
● Evictions, loss of unemployment aid threaten millions while COVID-19 resurges.
