Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said the Senate will definitely consider voting on a second stimulus package in July but claimed Democrats are partaking in “political theater.”

“As you’ve heard suggested, I said back in March we would take another look at this… probably in July… take a snapshot of where we are, both on the healthy front and the economic recovery front, and decide at that point what needs to be done further,” McConnell told reporters in a news conference on Tuesday.
