Episode description

Now that the House has passed President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus aid bill, the Senate will take it up this week in what is likely to be a party-line vote. But the Senate may make changes to the bill, such as scrapping an increase to a $15 minimum wage and shifting $350 billion for states and localities. CQ Roll Call’s Jennifer Shutt and David Lerman break down the latest on the bill and look ahead to the upcoming vote-a-rama in the Senate. Learn more about your ad choices.
