'The family-run restaurant that is trying to stay open and pay its workers—they need a lifeline,' said former Vice President Joe Biden.
Former Vice President Joe Biden has hit out at President Donald Trump and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell"trying to put corporate bailouts ahead of families" with a proposed $500 billion fund meant to help businesses that are struggling due to the coronavirus outbreak.
In a Medium post published on Sunday evening, Biden accused the White House and Senate Republicans of trying to create a"slush fund" for corporations, branding the initiative"simply wrong." For a stimulus package to be successful, Biden said,"any lifelines to big companies should ensure the aid lifts up workers, instead of enriching CEOs or shareholders. If these companies are taking money from taxpayers, they must make an enforceable commitment that they will keep workers on payroll."
