Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Tuesday a Senate under his control would focus first on passing further emergency COVID-19 relief and confirming President-elect Joe Biden’s Cabinet nominees.

“As our first order of legislative business, please prepare to address additional COVID emergency relief legislation,” Schumer said in a letter to fellow Democrats.
