Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) urged President-elect Joe Biden to bridge partisan divides in Washington and push Congress to adopt a narrow bill that would deliver $2,000 stimulus checks rather than pad relief legislation with unrelated issues.

“Please do not allow direct payments to the American people to get caught up in the normal political games by adding a wish list of far left or other unrelated priorities to this legislation,” Rubio wrote in a letter obtained by Axios.
