McConnell on Coronavirus Bill: ‘Anything that Doesn’t Address’ the Pandemic ‘Should Not Be Considered’

‘We’re working on trying to deal with this public health crisis, which we are trying to bend the curve on quickly’

EXCERPT:

MCCONNELL: "Look, the goal here is to deal with this emergency created by this pandemic. And anything that doesn’t address that pandemic, it seems to me, should not be considered. We’re working on trying to deal with this public health crisis, which we are trying to bend the curve on quickly. And anything that addresses plugging that gap for small businesses and for individuals, hopefully on a short-term basis, because if the advice Dr. Fauci and others are giving us is followed, we hope we’re going to begin to bend the curve and get back to normal. Because the underlying economy before all of this came along was in very good shape."
