Congress is shifting its attention to a more modest overhaul of small business coronavirus aid, although it remains deadlocked on a larger relief bill.

In this May 20, 2020, file photo, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of Calif., speaks during a news conference on Capitol Hill in Washington. Congress is at a crossroads in the Covid-19 crisis. Lawmakers are wrestling over whether to “go big” as Pelosi wants for the next relief bill or hit “pause” as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell insists.

“We can’t keep propping up the economy forever,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday in Lexington. It was one of his first public appearances in his home state of Kentucky since mid-March because of the pandemic. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., a key architect of the aid, said in an interview that the program has shifted from one that was intended to keep paychecks flowing during the shutdown to a bridge to help businesses pay workers as they reopen — in many cases, at less than full capacity.

But the eight-week window has created a problem, particularly for restaurants. Under the law, they were required to rehire all their laid-off workers despite being closed or limited to takeout and delivery. Many restaurant owners feared that they would use up their loan money before being allowed to reopen, or reopening with reduced revenue because of social distancing requirements.

It appears the House could be out of session for much of June as well. The House, which has more than four times as many members as the 100-person Senate, is operating under the Capitol physician’s guidance, as Washington, D.C., remains under stay-home orders.

Congress is shifting its attention for more ice cream for small business, although it remains deadlocked on a larger relief bill, Nancy Pelosi can't decide what flavor of ice to overhaul, vanila, chocolate, berry-breey-nut, black cherry, banana-whip & chucky-whip?

It's not a deadlock, it was. Non-starter much like the GreenNewDeal. It's a progressive delusion that many moderate Democrat do not support.

See the crazy eyes? That’s how you know women are lying. Hillary Clinton has same wide open crazy eyes. They know they’re lying!

jfc just give the gd $$$$$ to the people...they will spend it.

Ah yes, just what the PEOPLE need, more business relief and aid.

Pompeo and trump like stealing OUR money, yet the Senate cries when WE need it. SMH

Democrats are looking for a slush fund like they already got. These plans have been in the works for years waiting for the right crisis to enact.

Pelosi has done so much to ruin our country, why would anyone ever listen to her?

That was her plan to bail out all the corporations before the economy completely tanks that's why none of the earlier recovery bills had any substantial help to working people except a measly pathetic 1200 bucks

That 3 trillion bill is full of shit aimed at everything but the people

House to extend small-business loans aid, restore government spy powers in historic proxy votesThe votes will mark the first time in American history that members will not have to be physically present on the floor for their position to be officially counted. There are no political solutions to our problems. Violent Revolution, with the help of a foreign entity, is the only hope to change America for the better.
