The Trump administration and Senate Republicans have been in regular contact over possible coronavirus relief measures and the Senate's top Republican will"hopefully" unveil a new bill next week, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Monday.

Asked about the collapse of talks with Democrats over aid legislation, Mnuchin told Fox Business Network that he and White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows have been speaking regularly with Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell.

Mnuchin said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer"just don't want to negotiate in good faith. They've refused to meet.""We're gong to keep trying because it's too important for the American people," Mnuchin said, adding that he has been holding daily calls with McConnell and other congressional Republicans.

Mnuchin is due to testify on Tuesday before the Democrat-controlled House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis on the administration's economic response.
