Virus relief package unlikely before November election

White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow told the Fox Business network Friday it would be “almost impossible” to execute a coronavirus relief package before the November election.

“Maybe some of it could be executed. But you certainly couldn’t get a grand, large deal,” Kudlow said.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told Democratic colleagues that a divide persists with the White House over a number of components of the fiscal stimulus, even as an agreement nears on a coronavirus testing program, Bloomberg reported.
