WASHINGTON - U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she expected the chamber to pass an estimated $2.2 trillion coronavirus relief bill when it meets on Friday, after the Senate overwhelmingly approved the unprecedented economic rescue legislation on Wednesday evening.
The Republican-led Senate approved the bill - which would be the largest fiscal stimulus measure ever passed by Congress - by 96 votes to zero late on Wednesday, after days of intense negotiations between Democratic and Republican lawmakers and Trump administration officials. House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy also backs the relief plan passed by the Senate. But he wants it to be allowed to work before deciding whether more legislation was needed.Only two other countries, China and Italy, have more coronavirus cases than the United States. The World Health Organization has warned that the country looks set to become the global pandemic’s epicenter.
The $2.2 trillion bill includes a $500 billion fund to help hard-hit industries and a comparable amount for direct payments of up to $3,000 apiece to millions of families.
Scratch the bill. Only help businesses with workers who were impacted and let's all get back to work. The actual data shows that only 80+ year olds are at risk. Well they're at risk regardless of the illness or disease. Carry on.
SpeakerPelosi History will remember your ’fight’, by History I mean week after next, when the ONE TIME check runs out and families are starving and scared And facing eviction.
Well this is a out right lie!
Bernie! Bernie! Bernie!
How easy for SenateGOP to say Democrats Lie yet democrats use words like 'untrue' to describe TRUMP lies!...
McConnell tried to screw the American people that's why,....
Gobiernos, empresarios fingen no ponerse de acuerdo en medio de una crisis catastrófica, gruñendo, gesticulando incoherentemente con sus garras, dándole demasiada, enferma importancia a el dinero, como monstruo abominables, antropófagos propios de una novela de misterio y horror.
