With Pelosi leading the charge, Democrats have chosen to vote against further aid for small businesses that have been impacted by COVID-19:
Senate Democrats on Thursday blocked a Republican push to unanimously pass a bill to put $250 billion more into a loan program for small businesses devastated by the coronavirus pandemic.
With only a few senators in the Capitol, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell tried to approve the measure by a unanimous vote. Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., objected to the request, stalling the legislation.
Speaking on the Senate floor, McConnell said he was not “talking about changing any policy language” the parties negotiated last month as part of an unprecedented $2 trillion emergency spending package. He urged Democrats not to “block emergency aid you do not even oppose just because you want something more” — tweaks to the small business aid program and more emergency funding for hospitals and states, a proposal Democratic leaders outlined Wednesday.

One of the Democrats who voted against funds for small businesses was none other than Diane Feinstein, who conservative actor James Woods slammed on Twitter, pointing out that she recently advocated for $5 billion to go to Iran for COVID-19 aid.
The hypocrisy is real…
Democrats want to help Iran before small business owners in America. They spit in the face of every American when they do it and have no shame whatsoever. They never cease to amaze and disgust. https://t.co/LcyNejZyQU [3]

This decision will definitely come back to haunt Feinstein…
Which should be devastating considering she’s still recovering from her blunders during the Kavanaugh hearing.
