They are against employers for workrelated illness regarding the covid. He says these suits are such a threat, such an emergency that they are Worth Holding up relief until theres a deal to hold these employers harmless from liability.

Terry said he will lose reelection if he does not stand and fight for their signature issue that fueled his victory in 2016. I can tell you as you noted, House Republicans changing course to the president s direction. Ng they passed a new bill with 5. 7 billion plus 8 billion for hurricane and wildfire relief.
