The money the Democrats want to give out doesn't have restrictions. It is allowed to be used as seen fit by the state.

Republicans also want to loosen the restrictions on state money to encompass more, but specifically do not want it to go towards pensions.

One of the criticisms of the first payout to states from the first round was that it was too specific so states had it sitting there and didn't use it all. Hence Trump's "not all states even used their money from the first round yet" line.
As someone that is literally in charge of making sure my City follows the CARES Act requirements, this is not true. It is very broad and has less regulations than most federal money (but still has to follow the general rules). The qualification is basically "is this related to COVID?"
