Senate GOP opposes $1.8T aid package – report
United States Senate Republicans still oppose the economic stimulus bill worth $1.8 trillion that the White House and the congressional Democrats are reportedly discussing, Fox Business reported on Friday, citing an unnamed source.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell currently does not have the necessary number of votes to pass such a bill in the upper chamber of Congress, according to the report.
Earlier in the day, US President Donald Trump said that the negotiations on the stimulus legislation were “moving along,” while his economic advisor Larry Kudlow revealed that the commander in chief told him he wanted a “relatively broad-based” deal.
