Republicans are desperately trying to change the subject, but American Rescue Plan relief was front page news across Republican-held Congressional districts all weekend.

Republicans will have a hard time running away from that vote with American Rescue Plan headlines splashed across the front pages ofnewspapersacrosstheirdistricts.
