This threat is ridiculous. Its theory is that Congress lacks power to set aside $350B for federal spending that isn’t available as a slush fund to fill budget holes created by state and local tax cuts. Absurd. That’s just the power of the purse. Period. https://t.co/wSgyW8ahtf — PolitiTweet.org

The AGs challenge a $350 billion pot of money set aside under the stimulus to help cash-strapped cities & states pay for the costs of the pandemic. Congress opted to restrict states from tapping these dollars to finance local tax cuts. Clearly lawful. https://t.co/wSgyW7SGBH — PolitiTweet.org
