House Democrats and Trump officials neared a deal on a bill to help American businesses and workers affected by the coronavirus outbreak.

After a day of negotiations and partisan brinkmanship, House Democrats and Trump administration officials were close to a final agreement Thursday evening on an economic stimulus package to address the widening impact of the coronavirus on American workers and businesses.

“We’ve resolved most of our differences, and those we haven’t, we’ll continue the conversation because there will obviously be other bills,” she said. Even if the House passes a bill Friday, the Senate is unlikely to do anything further until Monday at the earliest. Earlier Thursday, Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy predicted that a deal could come together in a day or two. Pelosi said she was open to Republican changes, but suggested she wouldn’t delay the bill’s passage for that long.
