Happy Saturday — beautiful day here in dc

Few things from today’s playbook id like to highlight.

The house has passed the coronavirus bill. 363 yes votes. 40 noes — all Republicans. And one present.
20% of house Rs were no on this bill — which is instructive to consider when thinking about the governing coalition when it comes to further legislation needed for coronavirus.
Impt to think how this came together

@SpeakerPelosi’s answer to @mkraju that “there was no need” for her to speak to @realDonaldTrump in the midst of a natl health emergency in which congress‘s help was needed shows that the president is firmly not a player in legislating.
MNUCHIN has found a groove w pelosi — some details below — and now he is the main liaison with democrats. Amazing how little the president is involved. And amazing how mnuchin’s fortunes have changed since tax reform, when senate Rs were wishing he’d go away at times
