Posted: Jul 28, 2020 / 07:39 PM EDTUpdated: Jul 28, 2020 / 07:40 PM EDTWASHINGTON, D.C. (NEXSTAR) – Senate Republicans and the White House unveiled their coronavirus stimulus plan Monday.&nbsp;Now comes the hard part — both parties have to negotiate their differences.&nbsp;Now that Republicans have their own bill, negotiation toward a bipartisan stimulus package is underway.&nbsp;“Republicans put forward a trillion dollar proposal for kids, jobs and healthcare including direct cash to households,” Senator Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, said.&nbsp;Senator Mitch McConnell says the GOP plan provides liability protection for businesses, more than $100 billion for schools, and more testing money.&nbsp;“Every single thing we put forward is a way to get more relief into peoples hands,” McConnell said.&nbsp;But Democrats say the GOP plan falls short, compared to their own $3 trillion plan.“Republicans seem to say that people don’t want to work. They want to take unemployment and stay home. That’s insulting,” Representative Eric Swalwell, D-California, said.&nbsp;Democrat Eric Swalwell says Republicans’ proposal to reduce the extra unemployment benefits from $600 to $200 a week will slow the recovery.&nbsp;“We want to keep a steady flow of unemployment benefits,” White House Economic Advisor Larry Kudlow said.&nbsp;But White House Economic Advisor Larry Kudlow says $200 is a more appropriate amount — That won’t hold workers back from returning to the workforce.&nbsp;“Sixty-eight percent of recipients received benefits that were above their wage,” Kudlow said.&nbsp;The Republican plan doesn’t include hazard pay for front line workers — or funds for state and local governments — which makes up a trillion dollars in the Democrats’ plan.“If we can’t come to their assistance, this means job losses for state and local governments,” Representative Zoe Lofgren, D-California, said.&nbsp;Zoe Lofgren says she and other Democrats hope Republicans will come around on more stimulus spending for communities and workers.Thanks for signing up!Watch for us in your inbox.Subscribe Nowno iframe support!✕× Close Ad
