Bipartisan COVID bill framework from the Talking Stick Gang (Manchin, Collins, Romney, Warner, Murkowski, Cassidy) being unveiled this morning: 
This is roughly the same price tag as the $1T bill McConnell rolled out in July that his members tore apart. Unlike that bill, however, it doesn’t include another round of stimulus checks. But it does offer slightly higher weekly unemployment benefit — $300.
Romney says half the money in the new bipartisan COVID bill is repurposed from unspent funds from CARES Act. Only $380B in new spending
Qs: Would McConnell put it on the floor? Will Pelosi/Schumer support it? Where is the dang Talking Stick?
