She is not above slipping in a few minor “poison pills”, any one of which would result in a Trump veto. Then the chorus would go up, “Trump’s fault!”
That’s the way they do business, you know.

The House is on track to vote on the package on Friday. House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer announced on Wednesday evening that the House will convene at 9 a.m. ET on Friday to consider the relief package.
