Took a picture of Senator Leahy taking pictures...bc why not? 
On a more serious note, just spoke to another Senator (Not Leahy) on background—they still believe a vote will happen in the Senate today, despite new objections to some language in the #coronavirus aid pkg from Republicans Graham, Scott, Sasse
“Senate needs to act. They need to act now.” -@GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy #coronavirus #coronavirusUpdate
McCarthy supports changes that Senate Republicans want -amending parts of the bill that allow ppl to make more money on unemployment during #coronavirus crisis than if they keep their jobs/receive aid checks #coronavirusreliefpackage
Side note: As Capitol reporters, we know there have been cases of #Coronavirus reported from this building. We’re still social distancing, we’re here in small numbers. Still being cautious, doing what we all believe is important work.
Looks like the Republican amendment to #coronavirus Aid Package addressing unemployment payments is gonna fail along party lines. #CoronavirusReliefBill
The #coronavirus relief package is going to pass overwhelmingly folks. 95 to nada right now, votes still open. Interested to see how this will impact the markets tomorrow. #NexstarDC
BREAKING: #coronavirus relief package passes the Senate unanimously 96-0
