The Senate on Monday didn’t advance a significant stimulus package to combat the CCP virus for the second time in two days.

Senators voted 49-46 and fell short of the three-fifths support that is necessary to debate a massive $1.5 trillion package. The negotiations will continue between Democrats and Republicans, said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.).
