Bunch of republicans are now doing press functions bragging about hospital funding in their electorates despite voting against that funding.

How much do you want to bet that certain PaRDians will BELIEVE that Republicans are the reason it passed?

5 years ago I might have said that's unreasonable, but I've seen what cults do to even semi-reasonable posters like Bogie.

I could see someone like Goomshill claiming that certain elements came out of committee that were placed there by Republicans and they deserve immense credit for it.

The bill was filled with a bunch of extra garbage and it was correct to vote against it.
This does not mean republicans can't be happy that some of the funding is going to their districts or send out notices. They did not oppose everything in the bill.

Yes it does, they voted against that money they can not then claim credit for receiving it.

There's zero garbage in the bill. All of it is essential.
