Pelosi: COVID package may change after election
The coronavirus economic stimulus package may change after the election, United States House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in an interview published on Wednesday.
Pelosi added that differences between the White House and Congress Democrats have been somewhat addressed but that she still doesn’t know what the GOP-heavy Senate will vote on. “That is up to the president to convince them that the agreement we have with him is one that will be honored by them,” Pelosi told the Wall Street Journal.
The Democrats need to win three or four seats to be able to control the Senate after the election, depending on who wins the presidency. Nevertheless, in accordance with the US Constitution, the current Republican-controlled Senate will not be replaced until January.
