The White House has reached a deal with leaders in the Senate on a $2 trillion stimulus deal to aid economic recovery from the coronavirus pandemic.
The deal was announced just after 1am on Wednesday, after hours of contentious floor speeches in the Senate that appeared to show negotiations teetering on the brink.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said that a vote was planned for Wednesday afternoon, with a House vote to follow.
The legislation aims to flood the reeling economy with capital by sending $1,200 checks to many Americans, creating a $367 billion loan program for small businesses, and setting up a $500 billion fund for industries, cities and states.

Robber Baron Nancy Pelosi wanted $ 35 million for the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
People may starve but at least rich east coast CHUD's will have their performing arts center subsidized.
Maybe those haute culture Eastern elite are house poor, have mistresses to support, and do not know how to mange their finances without a government teat?
They truly need you money Mr. and Mrs. Middle America or we will be forced to have Sally Struthers make a PSA!

"Authorized by the 1958 National Cultural Center Act of Congress, which requires that its programming be sustained through private funds, the center represents a public–private partnership"
Maybe Nancy Pelosi is dumb. Maybe she does not know what "programming be sustained through private funds" means?
Maybe Pelosi is just a greedy slut.
