WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Senate next week will begin debating a coronavirus aid bill and will proceed even if Republicans are not on board, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said on Thursday.
Schumer, a Democrat, did not provide any details on the bill that would be advanced but in a Senate speech he said there was the need for a “bold” and “robust” bill in light of current economic conditions.
