Pelosi ramps up perks like Peloton + liquor store | Eastern NC Now

At taxpayer expense

ENCNow

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi belatedly jumped into America's baby formula crisis on Friday, calling nationwide shortages "unconscionable" and setting an emergency vote next week. But while she tried to get Democrats caught up on a crisis that caught them by surprise, her administrative office was busy ramping up new perks for lawmakers.

House members were alerted to two new perks this week compliments of the chamber's Democrat leadership: fully paid memberships to Peloton gyms as well as a brand new liquor and drinks outlet.

Republicans immediately seized on the optics, saying doling out additional benefits to lawmakers when everyday Americans are struggling to fill gas tanks, grocery carts or baby bottles was a bridge too far, even for Washington.
