Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said that he doesn’t see the immediate need for a fifth CCP virus-related bill, even as Democrats are pressing to pass another large relief package.

“We’re basically assessing what we’ve done already. I’m in constant communication with the White House and if we decide to go forward, we'll go forward together,” McConnell told reporters in Washington, The Hill reported. “I don’t think we have yet felt the urgency of acting immediately. That time could develop, but I don’t think it has yet.”
