. It would mark a breakthrough with a last-minute spate of negotiations between top congressional leaders.
Negotiations between Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy picked up speed on Tuesday as the quartet met twice on Tuesday in Pelosi's office. The package would include $600 checks, the Post reported, citing a source familiar with the negotiations. The deal would likely exclude two of the most controversial issues, assistance to state and local governments and a sweeping liability shield for firms to insulate them from virus-related law suits.
McConnell struck an optimistic tone on the state of negotiations on Tuesday evening. "We're making significant progress and I'm optimistic that we're gonna be able to complete an understanding sometime soon," McConnell told reporters on Capitol Hill. Lawmakers have until midnight on Friday to pass spending legislation or many parts of the federal government would start to shut down. Congressional leaders aim to merge the pandemic relief plan to the omnibus government funding bill, which would fund federal agencies into September of next year.Something is loading.

We'll take it and make due. It's better than nothing.
$600 dollars? Could it at least be enough to pay rent? The fuck is wrong with our government.
Yay half of rent/mortgage for some ppl. A quarter of it in California/New York. Aye least make it $600 a month
You all still want a lock down?
It is going to China to pay interest and to give support to those who are not part of this country, but manage to get into the country.
$600. Our government is a complete and utter disgrace. There are people who can’t pay their rent or buy food. There are people who have been laid off for months. These criminals make me sick.
Scum bags in DC think they can just fuck us over?
that's $600 per week or what
America is ass
These people are so out of touch with reality... What is $600 doing for people?
Keep it, we don’t need it. We’re not gonna get the fcking check until March or April anyways. Wtf is $600 gonna do?! You’re giving our tax dollars to your billionaire friends and giving us the leftover change
These people are not public servants and this is absolutely disgusting... People are suffering...yet most if not all of these politicians are millionaires.. So they are far removed from the plight of the people...
600$ to 300 million Americans would total 180bn at most. Who the fuck is getting the other 720bn goddamn dollars?
Can someone pls explain to me where the rest of our fucking hard earned taxpayer is going to?
There are people who can’t pay household bills or put food on the table! 600.00?
FredSmackHeeeem

This chimp change won’t fix this country. It’s broke and democrats destroyed it.
That’s enough for PS5 . Thx Government
That will barely cover 2 weeks of groceries.
We really have to get rid of the TheDemocrats They are absolutely weak and pathetic. We have four years.
That’s not even rent 😂😭
ppl are in thousands and thousands of debt ,behind on rent and mortgages and about to be evicted due to this pandemic and they gave ppl $1200 like 8 months ago and now $600? When none of them have lost a paycheck? While they’ve given big business billions? Its lit our own taxes
Say man. We gotta find a way to freeze their salaries

I would rather we gave more in UI benefits to the smaller group of people who actually had economic impact from this instead of just mailing checks to people who have had no impact.

Good motivation, you want more than $600? Simple, GO TO WORK!.. .. It has been the most profitable year of my life!$!.. 🤑
2 trillion for corporations 500 billion for Americans and its a government for the people by the people right....keep fighting over democrat and republican tags as they royally fuck us without any concerns
$600? I'm convinced the US government hates its own people. But businesses that don't need loans get millions. I hope there's a special place in hell for politicians. Where the temperature is extra toasty. 🔥👹
$600 Well I guess... America wins?
Health care is a human right. I don't care how it is done so long as it is free and available for all.
