Senate Republicans on Tuesday blocked an attempt by Democrats to increase direct stimulus payments in the newly enacted Covid-19 relief bill from $600 to $2,000, bucking President Donald Trump who demanded the change.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., pictured on Capitol Hill on Dec. 20, has blocked an attempt to have senators vote on increasing direct coronavirus relief payments.
