Congress looks unlikely to pass a coronavirus relief bill by the end of July.
Before Republicans strike an agreement with Democrats, they first need to find a consensus within their own party. Trump has insisted on a payroll tax holiday — a proposal usually met with skepticism on Capitol Hill — and opposed new federal funding for coronavirus testing, which GOP congressional leaders support.
Previewing a process that could become especially bitter during an election year, McCarthy argued the bill would not pass before August because he expects Pelosi to delay it as she seeks to include her priorities in it. The chamber passed a $3 trillion rescue package in May. Senate Republicans dismissed it as unrealistic.
