President Donald Trump’s top negotiator and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) plan to regroup on Thursday for talks on a stimulus package as Trump pushes for a deal before the Nov. 3 election.

Forced to negotiate a comprehensive package because Pelosi refuses to deal with issues in standalone bills, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said Wednesday night that the administration’s top priority is unlocking approximately $300 billion approved in the initial large stimulus package.
