WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives are expected to unveil new coronavirus relief legislation on Tuesday afternoon, and could vote on the measure on Friday, the chamber’s No. 2 Democrat said.
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer told reporters that the legislation will include a range of provisions including aid to state and local governments that have been battling the coronavirus pandemic while facing diminished tax income from a shuttered economy.
