US Treasury Sec. Mnuchin: We’re going to update Senate On Coronavirus Relief Bill
Following the objection by the Republicans and a suggestion by President Donald Trump that the Senate would make further changes to the measure, the Coronavirus Relief Bill appears to have hit a speed bump, as per CNN. To tackle the roadblock, US Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin is in the closed-door meeting with some of the senators after saying that they are going to update the Senate on coronavirus relief bill.
