Playbook: “The House GOP leadership says there are some lawmakers who will be in Washington for Friday’s vote on the emergency coronavirus bill that passed the Senate last night. They are going to try hard to quash dissent, and any effort to call for a roll call vote on the legislation, and they say they will involve President Trump and senior White House officials should they need to. Republicans have a conference call at 1:30 p.m. today.”
