BREAKING: Senate unanimously approves bipartisan deal that will pump another $310 billion into the Paycheck Protection Program. The overall deal to which lawmakers and the White House agreed tops $484 billion.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer says a deal has been reached with the White House on small business funding that includes a national testing plan.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer released their own statement claiming victory over Republicans in getting the $484 billion deal cobbled together. Trump signaled his approval of the deal on Twitter, saying,"I urge the Senate and House to pass the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act with additional funding for PPP, Hospitals, and Testing."

Republicans successfully blocked Democratic requests for state and local aid in this package, as well as a 15% increase in the size of food stamp checks. "You need a significant federal involvement. You need a national strategy, and Mnuchin and the President and Meadows agreed to that, to their credit,” Sen. Schumer said, referring to Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin and White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows.

It’s never goes to where it’s supposed to go, the healthcare workers like myself who started battling covid 19 since March only got 100 dollars to our paycheck, that’s what our life is worth. Am so over politics

What about the Post Office!

Did she put in millions in pork payments to her friends?

What about that other package helping out 2,000 a month

A real victory would've been a signed aid package A WEEK AGO!! But she wouldn't allow a vote. She's such a fake political pos!

Nightline Alls while you are taking home $200k didn’t take a penny cut from your salary. And other senators and governors with similar salary range and non took a cut. What victory when you are not leading by example.

CAN U MAKE SURE IT ONLY GOES TO SMALL BUSINESS MY GOD , WHAT EXPLOITATION OF OUR TAX DOLLAR. how on earth was this passed and the VIOLATORS should b punished

Thank You President Trump!!!

1099 self-employed people that are not an LLC or an S Corps / C corps. Still f*cked.

RealDLHughley Only if you put exacting provisions in it so trump doesn't pilfer it.

When will Common Citizens get a Victory? Not a Penny for another Stimulus Payment? Shameful

TeamPelosi Now please help the state governments and the USPS

Have some ice cream...bitch.

The witch!

Nightline Worst speaker! Now she wear scarfs like Dr Deb Breix

She is the Antichrist

Whenever I see Chuckie I throw up a little in my mouth!

'Senate approves' = picture of Schumer. The same Schuner who blocked previous deal...

But nothing for Taxpayers? Shameful

BREAKING: The deal also provides an additional $75 billion to hospitals and $25 billion for testing, including resources for states.

Let's hope they distribute it right this time instead of giving the larger company's 10 billion dollars and the little company's nothing

Now let's read the details buried within the bill...
