The Latest Payoff in Pelosi's 'Relief' Bill Will Enrage You

Now, after Democrats sided with teachers unions refusing to go back to work, House Speaker Nancy wants to give federal employees a $1400 check for 15 weeks so they can homeschool their children.

Parents who don't work for the federal government, but pay the taxes that fund their salaries, are out of luck.

The U.S. House version of the "American Rescue Plan Act of 2021" - a $1.9 trillion emergency aid package to help America recover from the coronavirus pandemic has an extra perk for federal workers: Enhanced paid time off if your child is enrolled in a school that isn't back to full-time, in-classroom instruction.

It is funded through a new $570 million family leave account exclusively for federal workers.

While millions of parents struggle to work from home with kids who are enrolled in shuttered or partially shuttered schools, and millions more left the workforce or lost jobs to care for their at-home children, evidently parents in the federal bureaucracy need their own, personal Covid-19 bailout.

So the Biden Administration is issuing guidance to keep schools closed and then paying its own workforce to not work because of their guidance, and you get nothing.

Over the weekend teachers in Rockville, Maryland held a car protest refusing to go back to work.
