“#Lack of optimism for new coronavirus relief bill as negotiations stall<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n There was hardly a soul at the US Capitol on Monday, reflecting the lack of optimism for a new coronavirus relief deal amid the mounting blame-game<\/a> between Democrats and Republicans.<\/p>\n

President Trump said at a White House briefing on Monday night that four executive orders he signed Saturday will provide at least temporary relief amid gridlock on Capitol Hill.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re hurting people very badly. This would have been so easy for them to do,\u201d Trump said of Democrats in Congress.<\/p>\n

Under his executive orders, Trump said, \u201ca lot of money will be going to a lot of people very quickly, and I\u2019ve instructed the secretary of the Treasury to move as quickly as he can.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump signed orders to revive a federal eviction moratorium, extend student loan deferment, create a $400 weekly unemployment supplement and suspend some taxes on income under $104,000.<\/p>\n

Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, who led negotiations with Democrats, said at the briefing that \u201cmost of the states will be able to execute\u201d the new weekly supplement \u201cwithin the next week or two.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mnuchin said he had not spoken on Monday with either House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) or Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY).<\/p>\n

Schumer on Monday dismissed Trump\u2019s sweeping executive orders on coronavirus pandemic relief as \u201call sizzle, no steak.\u201d He said Trump\u2019s pandemic relief orders are insufficient and hard to implement after a breakdown in talks on legislation.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Trump\u2019s executive orders are hardly worth the paper they\u2019re printed on,\u201d Schumer said on the Senate floor. \u201cExecutive orders in general<\/a> aren\u2019t going to get the job done, especially the incompetent ones issued over the weekend \u2026 Trump\u2019s recent executive orders are so unserious in terms of meeting the large needs of America as to be pathetic.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump said he had to act after talks broke down. Democrats initially insisted the Republicans cave and pass a $3.4 trillion plan, including $1 trillion in bailouts for state and local governments, which Republicans oppose. On Friday, Democrats publicly offered to meet Republicans half-way around $2 trillion, but details remained vague.<\/p>\n

The gridlock resulted in a prior evictions moratorium lapsing last month and the expiration of a $600 unemployment supplement.<\/p>\n

Without federal protection, an estimated 23 million people could face eviction by October. More than 30 million people receive unemployment benefits from states and could benefit from a federal supplement.<\/p>\n

The lack of progress in talks means some broadly bipartisan ideas, such as another round of $1,200 stimulus checks and more than $100 billion in funds to help schools safely reopen in the fall, remain in flux.<\/p>\n

Schumer did not criticize Trump\u2019s deferment of student loans, but said the other three executive orders aren\u2019t good enough.<\/p>\n

Schumer said the order to halt evictions \u201cis the best example of all sizzle and no steak. It does not even guarantee a moratorium on evictions. It merely instructs federal agencies to \u2018review and consider whether it\u2019s app<\/a>ropriate to halt evictions.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat that means in jargon around here is, \u2018Let\u2019s not do it,\u2019 \u201d he claimed.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s payroll tax deferral \u201cwould do next to nothing to help our workers or the economy,\u201d Schumer insisted. He argued the taxes would have to be paid in December when the suspension ends \u2014 though Trump is pressuring Congress to forgive the amounts.<\/p>\n

The $400 unemployment supplement, meanwhile, \u201cis so put together with spit and glue that in all likelihood, many states won\u2019t implement it at all,\u201d Schumer said.<\/p>\n

Under the Trump order, $300 would come from federal funds and $100 from state funds, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said Monday.<\/p>\n

The Democratic-held House of Representatives doesn\u2019t plan to have any votes until Sept. 14, though lawmakers will be given 24 hours notice if there\u2019s a vote on coronavirus legislation.<\/p>\n

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) blamed Democrats for the impasse, noting that money for state and local governments was a major sticking point.<\/p>\n

\u201cDemocrats think they smell an opening. They have wanted for years to make Uncle Sam bail out decades of mismanaged and broken policies in places like New York, New Jersey, and California,\u201d McConnell said Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Trump took steps to soften the blow of the Democrats\u2019 hostage tactics on American families,\u201d McConnell said.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
