Top Republican and Democratic leaders are at an impasse over how to handle the next piece of CCP virus legislation, with both sides accusing one another of stalling—even as federal unemployment benefits are slated to expire at the end of the month.

In defense of the GOP’s HEALS Act on the floor of the Senate, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) described the measure as “a more-than-fair” bill that could see bipartisan support.
