Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin expressed concerns that another stimulus measure might not be approved by Congress before the November election, suggesting that Democrats may be unwilling to pass a bill because it could benefit President Donald Trump’s reelection chances.
“Well, I’m not going to speculate on whether we’re going to get something or not,” Mnuchin said in a Sept. 14 interview. “I think there is a compromise if the speaker is willing to move forward. I am somewhat concerned that she’s afraid any deal will be good for the president, and, obviously, we have politics that are getting in the way.”
