WASHINGTON, March 29 (Reuters) - The top U.S. House of Representatives Republican said on Sunday that a fourth economic stimulus package to try to curb the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic would be premature and may not even be necessary.
Im not sure we need a fourth package, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy told the Fox News program Sunday Morning Futures, noting he wants to see the first three packages totaling more than $2 trillion take effect first.
Illustrating the continuing tensions between the two parties in Congress, he added that he fears House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat, would try to use a fourth package to insert a political wish-list of items.

(15,969 posts)I understand wanting to dole out the first 3 bills and see what happens before adding even more in a fourth bill. The problem is nobody really knows final details of the bills.

PPV it to help pay off the national debt, offer other countries it, for a small fee, & let them pay off some debts too!
