New York reports 73 people died from coronavirus yesterday. Gov. Cuomo says it is the lowest single-day toll 'since this started.'
From CNN's Ali Zaslavin the “next month or so” as the country may “need one more plug here at the federal level to help us get through this period."
“There’s likely to be another bill. It will not be the $3 trillion bill that the House passed the other day, but there’s still a likelihood that more will be needed. In my view, it ought to be very carefully targeted to correct the mistakes that we certainly made in passing a multi-trillion dollar bill in one week. There were some mistakes obviously made," McConnell said at the press event at the Norton Brownsboro Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky.
McConnell also restated his negotiation red line for the fourth coronavirus relief bill: providing liability protections for employers.if they agreed to provide liability protections, McConnell replied: “No. That isn’t gonna happen.”Pressed by reporters whether the response to the Covid-19 crisis was adequate, McConnell said he would “rather not go back and finger point about what might have been done differently.
He said he thinks “the people involved on both sides did the best they could” because “you had a brand new disease that no one knew quite what was gonna happen.” On state and local aid, McConnell said that while there’s “great reluctance” among House and Senate Republicans to provide states with money to put toward preexisting financial problems, “if it’s directly related to Covid-19, there may be some additional assistance”.McConnell declined to comment, but said: “I’ll participate whatever way they set it up”
