House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she hoped to have a coronavirus aid deal with the White House this week, after speaking with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin
“I’m hopeful,” Pelosi told reporters who asked whether agreement on additional coronavirus relief could be reached this week. Her discussion with Mnuchin on Tuesday was their third conversation in as many days.
Pelosi has taken the lead for Democrats in trying to reach a compromise with the Trump administration on a further coronavirus relief bill. “We’re trying to figure out ... whether or not they’re willing to, you know, negotiate,” McGovern said. “We’re making a lot of compromises ... so we’ll see what they say.”
