“The key word is urgency and we want to get a package done by Monday,” says Larry Kudlow.
After meeting with Senate Republican leaders on Capitol Hill on Thursday, two of the Trump administration’s top economic officials said they were hopeful the massive economic recovery package to offset the coronavirus outbreak could passed by Congress by Monday.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., unveiled the package Thursday that members of his party had agreed on after breaking into smaller “task forces” to deal with individual issues. None of the officials would discuss specifics. The New York Times reported late Thursday that the Republican plan includes large corporate tax cuts.
Eric Ueland, director of the White House’s office of legislative affairs, also said Pelosi was being kept in the loop. “There’s a lot of great bicameral conversation going on. We’re flowing a lot of information to both chambers, even though, to your point, the House isn’t here,” he said.
