The three members u listed wanted us to receive NOTHING! Be thankful that was overridden, as they so rudely (Republicans) left us once again high and dry. You can be assured they are receiving their stipends thru numerous lobbyist, we all know that's a fact. We should be thankful to anyone who made the decision to support our community. Be grateful, and for goodness sake, keep politics out of this.....Politics has nothing to do with how to dispurse these welcomed funds. Denny, U must be not thinking clearly today.

Inflation is growing by the day, taxes will be going way up in many ways and what we get got our money is sub par. Limit government to protect our borders and provide the freedoms afforded by our Constitution, nothing more. Given proper leadership, our private sector, and independent work force through a free market can handle all of our country’s needs much better than allowing Big Brother to add to our problems. People think free money is so good, well TANSTAAFL (There Ain’t No Such Thing As A Free Lunch!)! We can fix our “social” and political issues by maintaining Godly values and principals, starting at home, with our own neighborhoods and communities, then to our cities, counties and states. No Big Government is coming to help us so why keep letting them say they are? Get off the teat and let’s get to work!

If we do, we're thanking the Democrats who voted for it. Look at the ways these funds are proposed to be spent. Is this in line with our values? If so, you're thinking like a Democrat.
