New Covid Funding Deal Appears Dead

“A congressional deal for billions of dollars in additional coronavirus funding appeared all but dead Thursday after Senate Republicans accused the White House of being dishonest about the nation’s pandemic funding needs,” the Washington Post reports.

“Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), who brought the Senate close to a bipartisan $10 billion covid funding deal in March, said the Biden administration had provided ‘patently false’ information about its inability to buy additional vaccines, treatments and supplies.”
