Sen. Doug Jones of Alabama said he voted to advance Senate Republicans' controversial coronavirus package — the lone Democrat to do so — to highlight that progress is being made on the bill and time to act is running out
When asked by CNN's Jake Tapper why he voted for the legislation Monday after voting against it on Sunday, Jones replied,"Because I think there's been great progress.""That is exactly what the message has been from everybody on both sides -- we've made progress," Jones said."That was the message that I wanted to get yesterday because quite frankly I think we'd had about a 24-hour period where there was no progress, where Sen.
everybody knew this vote was going to fail, we should have just stayed behind closed doors and continued to work until we have a deal," he said, predicting that such a deal would have broad bipartisan support.Additionally, he said,"no one should see my vote today on a motion to proceed, saying we've got great progress, no one should see that as a vote of yes on a final package.
