A Glimpse Into the Future from a Recent Oval Office Briefing

– Quick comments from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell who recognized that both sides need to work together
– Interesting comments from Republican Kevin McCarthy, House Minority Leader, having previously served as House Majority Leader from August 2014 to January 2019
– President’s support for the Payroll Tax Cut

The GOP hasn’t reached consensus on whether – or by how much – to renew the enhanced federal benefits that are set to mostly expire by the end of the week, but the party has strongly indicated that the weekly $600 federal enhancement provided on top of state unemployment benefits would need to be reduced. Some lawmakers are floating the possibility that it could be modified to between $200 and $400 a week, according to The Washington Post.

While there’s no certainty that the administration or Republicans will back any extension of the expanded federal unemployment benefit, Larry Kudlow insisted last week that they won’t abandon the payments that have buoyed millions of Americans who lost work due to the virus.

“I think what we’ll do is put a more prudent cap on [unemployment benefits] at perhaps 70-75% of wages so we create incentives to work, not disincentives,” Kudlow said.

“And we’re also looking at a re-employment bonus of some kind.”

“We’re not going to end unemployment benefits, certainly not,” he continued. “We’ll probably have a targeted volume of checks, IRS checks.”

Democrats are prioritizing a renewal of the $600 unemployment benefits.

In their $3 trillion bill, they sought to extend the federal benefit until January 2021.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California has said that lawmakers will “have to find a compromise because we must extend it.”
