House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) are facing more calls to pass a smaller CCP virus relief measure, coming weeks after talks between the Democratic congressional leaders and the White House stalled over the size and scope of the measure.
Austan Goolsbee, who served as chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers during the Obama administration, says something needs to be implemented soon, suggesting that Schumer and Pelosi should consider taking up a smaller, more targeted offer from Republicans and the White House.
