Dr. Chhoda explores new comments from Speaker Pelosi, who said she’s not insisting that the White House accept all her demands for a fiscal-stimulus package in order to resume talks, after sending Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin a letter outlining areas where she’s still awaiting a response.
“We don’t expect them all to be in our favor,” Pelosi said in an interview with Bloomberg Television Thursday. The point is to weigh each side’s arguments and negotiate, she said, holding out hope that a deal could still be done after the election.
Pelosi listed seven major areas of disagreement in her letter: a national virus testing-and-tracing program; funding for state and local governments; school safety measures; child-care funding; tax credits for working families; unemployment insurance; and workplace protections and liability issues.
President Trump, meantime, accused Pelosi of stalling before the election. He reiterated his call for a package even bigger than the $2.4 trillion favored by the speaker. “But Nancy Pelosi does not want to do it,” he said in a podcast with Jon Taffer. Trump said he’ll push for “a very big package as soon as the election’s over.”
