Senate Republicans still have not agreed to a pandemic relief package, but they have confirmed 1 judge for every 1,340 Americans dead of COVID.
Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-NJ) tweeted:

A Senate Majority Leader who worked for and cared about the American people would have passed more COVID relief before poverty began climbing to levels that have not been seen since the 1960s. If you live in Georgia and you think poverty, suffering, and death are an appropriate tradeoff for right-wing judges, then Mitch McConnell is your guy.
America could have a Senate that puts the needs of the American people first, and that Senate can become a reality if the Democratic candidates win the Georgia Senate runoffs.
Thousands of Americans are dying daily because Mitch McConnell is more interested in confirming judges than saving their lives.
