“Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) told Senate Republicans that he has warned the White House not to make a big stimulus deal before the election,” the Washington Post reports.
“McConnell suggested that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is not negotiating in good faith with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, and any deal they reach could disrupt the Senate’s plans to confirm Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court next week.”
New York Times: “Mr. McConnell’s counsel threw cold water on Mr. Trump’s increasingly urgent push to enact a fresh round of pandemic aid before he faces voters on Nov. 3. It underscored the divisions within the party that have long hampered a compromise.”
