Federal Stimulus in Response to COVID-19
Published: March 25, 2020
On Wednesday, March 25, the Senate and the White House reached a deal regarding a $2 trillion coronavirus economic stimulus package.
The Senate plans to vote on the legislation on March 25. Then the House will need to pass it before it goes to the President to sign it into law. For the House to pass it quickly on Wednesday, the vote would need to happen by a voice vote without any objections from any member of the House, otherwise the legislators will need to return to D.C. for a vote. The House reconvenes on Thursday, March 26.
