JUST IN: The House passed a $3 trillion relief bill. It doesn't have a chance in the Senate, but Democrats say it showcases a starting line for talks for more fiscal stimulus as the pandemic worsens.

"This is a very strategically planned piece of legislation that is tailored strictly to meet the needs of the American people regarding the coronavirus pandemic," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said on the House floor ahead of the vote."To do anything less would not be responsible." The legislation weaves together a long list for policies Democrats have pushed over its 1,800-plus pages, addressing gaps they feel left behind by four previous bipartisan packages approved since March. So far, Congress has passed about $3 trillion in aid.
