White House and Senate agree on sweeping $2 trillion stimulus deal to curb damage caused by coronavirus
The White House and Senate leaders of both parties struck an agreement late Tuesday on a sweeping $2 trillion measure to aid workers, businesses and a health care system strained by the rapidly spreading coronavirus outbreak.
The package was aimed to combat what Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell had called "the most serous threat to Americans' health in over a century and quite likely the greatest risk to America's jobs and prosperity that we've seen since the Great Depression”. Dr Anthony Fauci, the government's top infectious disease expert, said pointedly at the briefing, “no one is going to want to tone down anything when you see what is going on in a place like New York City”.
Opening the Senate on Tuesday, McConnell combined optimism about the chances for a deal with frustration at the delays – and a sober view of the crisis at hand.
