KANSAS CITY, Mo. â Senators from Kansas and Missouri expressed disappointment after the
Missouri Sen. Roy Blunt (R) said in a statement that he voted against passing the bill because it fails the American people.
âThis massive spending bill, and the partisan process by which it was passed, fails the American people, Blunt said. Last year, we worked together â Democrats and Republicans, House and Senate â to pass five bipartisan COVID-19 relief packages to fund the economic and health response to the pandemic. Instead of building on that successful pattern, Democrats rammed through a bill filled with untimely spending and misplaced priorities.
