I guess one issue with RonJohn forcing entire reading of the bill is it's harder for Republicans to complain that no one knows what's in it — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer asks to dispense with reading the bill. RonJohn objects. Now, all Americans can turn on C-SPAN 2 and listen to the bill text — PolitiTweet.org

Covid bill clocks in at 628 pages. Was plopped right down and Senate voted to proceed. It's largely similar to the House bill but senators surely haven't had time to read this thing. — PolitiTweet.org

“My state needs relief. If Congress is going to move this much money out the door, how am I going to make sure that states like Alaska … get access to those rescue dollars?” she told @pkcapitol yesterday — PolitiTweet.org

Rounds: "none of us begrudge the fact that she will look at that. We are hopeful that she will decide the amount of bad in the bill is enough to where she will decide it’s not appropriate to support it,” Alaska socked by pandemic, lack of tourism — PolitiTweet.org

Murkowski voted for Haaland today and also was lobbied on Tanden. But Rs see the stimulus bill as different Lankford: “Alaska’s definitely a unique state, to say the least. But it is still part of a $2 trillion consequence, long-term, for the whole country.” — PolitiTweet.org

New: Republicans leaning hard on Murkowski to reject the $1.9 stimulus bill. No. 3 GOPer Barrasso: “Sen. McConnell has been very clear on that, for all Republicans. The goal is to present a united front" But Murkowski is unique and so is Alaska https://t.co/FrdU0tNpML — PolitiTweet.org

Historically what’s happened is ... we offer a couple of 100 amendments on the Republican side. And we get a couple of dozen voted on and people tire out. I’m coming up with a process that keeps people from tiring out. I’m getting sign ups. I’m laying out a three shift schedule" — PolitiTweet.org

@marianne_levine Cuomo isn't a senator like Franken, or a nominee like Kavanaugh. National Democrats largely leaving it to the NY to weigh in on Cuomo. GOP Sen. Wicker said Cuomo is a "goner" but that "the Senate polices it' own," explaining why his Dem colleagues are holding fire — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
@marianne_levine Of any D senator asked about the issue, Hirono went the furthest. Although she put trust in the attorney general’s investigation, she suggested that “there may come a tipping point with regard to Gov. Cuomo where he should resign.” Several others did not want to talk about it — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
“Disturbing.” “Serious.” “Troubling.” Senate Democrats use those words to describe the three allegations of sexual harassment against New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. But calling for his resignation is another matter entirely. story with @marianne_levine https://t.co/9isjVLsxc4 — PolitiTweet.org
