On Wednesday during a speech on the Senate floor, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell unleashed on Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi as she continues to block COVID-19 funding.
The comments from McConnell also come after Pelosi admitted that she purposely blocked COVID funding and wouldn't agree to a smaller bill unless Joe Biden is in office.
The Daily Caller reports:
McConnell explained, during a floor speech Wednesday, the efforts and offers Republicans have made to try and get a relief bill passed. Pelosi said Friday she would accept a coronavirus stimulus package after months of stalled negotiations, however, she declined a $916 billion coronavirus relief proposal that was offered by Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin and supported by President Trump.
The relief proposal would have given $600 direct payment for individuals and $1,200 for couples, according to House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy. McConnell ripped Pelosi for refusing the offer and other offers throughout the ongoing pandemic.
