Breaking: The Senate GOP rolled out a $1 trillion virus relief proposal that extends federal unemployment aid but at a lower level, setting up a fight with Democrats
WASHINGTON—Senate Republicans rolled out a roughly $1 trillion coronavirus relief bill proposal Monday, launching a mad dash to reach a deal with Democrats on unemployment payments and other aid disputes in the parties’ rival proposals.
The Republican plan cuts the current federal $600 weekly unemployment supplement to $200 a week through September, when the payment will then combine with state benefits to replace 70% of previous wages. Democrats have proposed continuing the current $600 a week supplement through January.
