House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said on Sunday that while differences remained with the Trump administration on a broad CCP virus relief bill, she was optimistic the package could be adopted before November’s presidential election.

“I’m optimistic because, again, we’ve been back and forth on all of this,” Pelosi said in an interview with ABC’s “This Week.” She added that for a relief bill to pass ahead of the election, an agreement would have to come within 48 hours.
