Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said he hopes House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will be interested in jump-starting negotiations over a coronavirus stimulus package when the chamber returns to discuss U.S. Postal Service funding.

With the House returning to Washington this week, Mnuchin said Tuesday on CNBC: “Since Speaker Pelosi is coming back to look at Postal, hopefully she will be more interested in sitting down.” The chamber is set to vote Saturday on adding $25 billion in Postal Service funding.
