House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the White House will have to agree to “much more” spending for a fresh round of stimulus if there is any hope of striking a deal before the election.
Pelosi said she talked with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Sunday and plans to discuss the stimulus with him again on Monday. She held out hopes that they still can find a way to bridge the roughly $1 trillion gap between them on a plan to bolster the economy.
