Today, Tuesday, the president of the United States, Donald Trump, revealed that there will be no new closures of the economy due to the Corona virus, during an interview with Fox News.
Trump added that he would like to agree on a fiscal stimulus package that exceeds the $ 2.2 trillion proposed by Democrats.
For months, discussions between Democrats and Republicans have continued to extend the Cares Act, which was approved last March with the outbreak of the Corona virus and allows spending 2.2 trillion dollars to stimulate the economy, before it expires.
But disagreement between the two sides to reach a new stimulus plan still exists over the amount and forms of spending, as Democrats insist on helping stumbling state and local governments, which Trump categorically rejects.
Democrats seek to pass a broad-based stimulus bill worth $ 2.2 trillion, while the Trump administration raised the latest offer to $ 1.8 trillion.
Last week, US Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin announced that an agreement had not yet been reached with Democratic lawmakers on a new stimulus package for the US economy, despite some progress.
