Negotiators have also discussed including about $60 billion for economic disaster assistance, $75 billion for hospitals and $25 billion for coronavirus testing, one of the last outstanding issues. Schumer said the administration had embraced Democrats’ position of nationalizing the program, though the details and exact funding figures were still in flux on Tuesday morning according to aides.
Yet Democrats finally admitted defeat on their demands for $150 billion for state and local funding after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Mnuchin took a hard line against including that money. Instead the legislation will grant flexibility for unspent money from previous relief bills to be used for revenue shortfalls, Schumer said.
