Over the weekend, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi gave the White House 48 hours. According to him, if they want to resolve something before the election, it must be done on Tuesday.
Recent developments reported that the Republican U.S. Senate is preparing to draft a bill on Tuesday for a stimulus program for small businesses affected by the Covid-19 outbreak with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin discussing a wider stimulus package.
Pelosi and Mnuchin have been in talks since August on a new stimulus program and it will continue on Tuesday after both sides have secured a meeting point for talks.
Pelosi has set Tuesday as the deadline to reach an agreement with the White House if it wants a comprehensive aid bill to be resolved before election day on November 3.
Pelosi argues that he is optimistic the agreement can be reached. Trump today stated that he expects Republicans in the Senate to participate if the White House reaches a Covid-19 aid agreement with Pelosi even though many senators have expressed opposition to a massive stimulus package.
