Pelosi dismisses GOP relief bill again
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi maintained her position on Wednesday that the Republican proposal on a fourth coronavirus relief bill is unacceptable to Democrats.
“As has been clear since last week, Republicans’ bill which fails to address these critical issues cannot get unanimous consent in the House,” she said referring to demands from Democrats that a next COVID-19 bill includes $250 billion in funding for state and local governments.
Earlier today, it was reported that the emergency loans to small businesses hit by the coronavirus crisis are close to being depleted, indicating lawmakers will need to act quickly in order to keep companies afloat during the pandemic.
