Pelosi Pivots on Phase 4 Relief Bill

“Speaker Nancy Pelosi shifted her tone on Friday, calling for a much more focused Phase 4 relief package to address immediate needs related to the coronavirus pandemic, a departure from the sprawling legislation she and other top Democrats were pushing earlier this week,” Politico reports.

Said Pelosi: “Let’s do the same bill we just did, make some changes to make it current. While I’m very much in favor of doing some things we need to do to meet the needs — clean water, more broadband, the rest of that — that may have to be for a bill beyond that right now.”
