Markey, a Democrat, proposed that people receive $2,000 per month for the remainder of the coronavirus pandemic along with back pay through March for the monthly stipends that would have been missed since the health crisis began. Cruz, a Republican, mocked Markey's proposal and joked that everyone should get $1 million.

"Give every person in our country $2000/month for the duration of the pandemic, $2000/month for 3 months after that, and $2000/month retroactive to March," Markey wrote.


Why be so cheap? Give everyone $1 million a day, every day, forever. And three soy lattes a day. And a foot massage. We have a magic money tree — we should use it!" Cruz replied.

"It's not a goddamn joke Ted. Millions of families are facing hunger, the threat of eviction, and the loss of their health care during a pandemic that is worsening every day. Get real," Markey wrote.
