President Joe Biden's $1.9 trillion COVID relief bill passed with no GOP support, but some Republican lawmakers have celebrated coronavirus stimulus measures regardless.

NBC News reporter Sahil Kapur noted that Salazar's efforts might backfire. He noted the representative did not mention in either her tweet or her statement that she voted against both versions of the relief package."But statements of support like this will, in an odd way, bolster the White House's contention that the package is 'bipartisan' despite the vote tally."

Wicker authored the Restaurants Act, which would provide a $120 billion relief fund to help independent restaurants and small franchises, and has been pushing separately for relief for such businesses.
