Republicans and democrats are clashing at the senate as the coronavirus rescue bill fell short of the votes needed to advance on sunday night and theyre back at it today debating all of that artist karen fronsac has been Monitoring Monitoring the situation on the senate floor all morning she is joining us now ferran whats it looking like when all of the vote to move this nearly 2 trillion dollar economic rescue package what failed again about a half an hour ago this after the bill already failed sunday night now both sides of the aisle have been working around the clock to come to some kind of agreement but ever since the bill was introduced last thursday by Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell now you could say that a wrench has been thrown into the mix House Speaker nancy pelosi and her fellow democrats just minutes ago have released a counter proposal thats more than a 1000 pages long saying that theyre calling the take responsibility for workers and families act now pelosi says that the Current Senate bill drafted by republicans puts corporations 1st not workers and families but some elements in this new democratic bill already exist in the bill the senate is still trying to work out but in this new democratic bill corporations would not be allowed to use taxpayer money for stock buybacks it would boost Unemployment Insurance strengthen child tax and earned income tax credits and inject 40000000000. 00 into schools and universities now as far as what republicans have in their bill thats now sending them back to the drawing board yet again after a failed vote well their bill it would direct payments of 1200. 00 each to most American Adults 500. 00 for each child 350000000000. 00 toward Small Businesses which would push billions toward hospitals and the Unemployment Insurance system along with a 5 100000000000. 00 program for businesses states and cities democrats say the 1. 00 trillion dollar economic rescue package doesnt go far enough to get health care and unemployment aid to americans and gives a 500000000000 dollars quote slush fund for corporations when that money should go to hospitals medical workers and supplies but republicans say the economy also needs to be revived otherwise it could send the u. S. Into a massive depression that could be impossible to get out of it on the floor opened up this afternoon it was back to bickering on both sides we did so after 911 we did so with the financial meltdown. In a. Here is where your phrasing and me that is in this poll. Equally devastating to the health of the people and to the health of our economy so one of the reasons that the bill actually fell short sunday night you actually had 5 republicans not present because of self quarantine now that has posed this question should senators be able to vote remotely or President Trump says he sees no problem with it. I was thinking about it today i mean we could be. With whats going on nobody has ever seen anything like this you could have a lot of people in there from. From congress. It would certainly be there is a reason constitutionally and it may be but i would be totally in favor of it on a temporary basis now some say this new bill brought forth by Speaker Pelosi is a power move to put pressure on the senate to reach a deal while republicans say the democrats well theyre just trying to take advantage of a crisis for their own wishlist but on a separate no if both if both sides can come to an agreement and a bill lets say is passed where most americans would get at least 1000. 00 u. S. Treasury secretary steve says that his department would be responsible for either sending out checks via mail or direct deposit and hypothetically if there is a bill passed by the senate this week newton says that most americans could actually see a check as early as april 6th reporting in washington fair and fronsac. And while the impact of the coronavirus is being felt across the country it has left a wave of uncertainty here in the Nations Capital where businesses have been forced to close and across the country unemployment numbers have skyrocketed arties Rachel Blevins continues our coverage on covert 19 with this report.

C. The attorney general shared his support for the move and said he believes it would reduce the spread of coronavirus and keep residents safe but with the millions of americans staying home is the closure of all nonessential businesses implemented to combat the impact of the coronavirus many worry that its impact on the economy is only just beginning in washington Rachel Blevins archie.

To share with the news articles about the a long time ago i noticed that it was really hard to just find the information you know it was really hard to just you know get the numbers that you needed youd have to go to Chinese Government website news articles that were probably outdated but so i would be cool to combine some of the skills i was working on and just make a website that would check the Current Affairs and so it gets the information from all those sources and its able to just you know. Just go into one stores and. Its pretty cool yeah it is pretty cool it is definitely like a one stop shop for all these numbers its like a simple platform easy to read theres no ads popping up along the way which we should also add youre not making any money from all of this so i mean if youre not what are you getting from this in other words if youre not make it ad money why do it. Yes i never will but as i say its a be kind of weird and i also like how you know minimalistic it is to just find the information and i dont want to you know put that behind all to a well kept thing so you know i guess what im getting from this is you know a person isnt stuff that come from you know. Internships and. Person stuff but its also just its your own world with technology especially not so thats for you as a lot of the cool you know that i get you know people are generally helpful on the website pretty cool and you said that you wanted to obviously create a website that was using a ring how is this different from other web sites especially like the government ones like. Yes i mean in a lot of people. On. Like i mean i mean when i started a web one day about theres it doesnt work at all if youre trying to visit their own system possible like anything but my website on of instantly works on you get the quick facts like right there. And then you know 80 percent of my topic is from mobile users so ive been catering to the mobile experience a lot i mean thats because you open it up. And you have those numbers. Well you know just. So yeah i think our connection is a little little sketchy right now i want to try to reconnect with you another time and thats ok well try to get back with you later on today or later this week. All right over to europe france has now surpassed 16000 confirmed cases of the 674 people who have already died most of those people were over 70 years old so with the public very alarmed theres also a growing dispute from medical professionals who say the french government government reacted too slowly against the spread of this virus sherrilyn dubinsky has those details the infection rate goes up but here in france we are hearing from french medics they are happy that they feel that enough was done enough to stop the pandemic here in france theyve actually filed a legal complaint against some of frances talk officials including the Prime Minister and the former Health Minister whos ill what they say is that these officials knew as early as january how bad things were going to get and yet they didnt do enough some of the evidence for their complaint comes to an interview with the former Health Minister herself who had talked about France Holding the municipal elections just over a week ago and saying it was a musket rate and saying as she stepped down from her job as Health Minister she did so crying because she knew that a tsunami was coming. From the medics has told all to see that the government was simply lying. Were dealing with a government thats lying to us they say well be taking measures and theyll say again we need to do this we need to do that the truth is weve lost the advantage and will struggle to catch back up do you want an example you must remember the president s stark speeches last week when he used his warlike tone as commander in chief to convinces that masks will arrive soon because mass are the main tools in this war they help medical workers where are those masks. Well the french government says its doing all it can to handle the crisis in regards to those shortages we have heard from the french Prime Minister edward phillipe requisitions have been made and requested be made to manufacture some researches to come up with new prototypes for things such as mosques this is more of what he had to say. We have asked the ministry of the ministry of defense to find alternatives more precisely to gauge an wide range of industrial activity to some research either to multiply the production lines or to come up with alternatives disposable reusable well another accusation from the medics that the lawyers told us about was the lack of testing for 19 they think this is problematic now from isnt the only country thats been experiencing shortages for the kits to test for the virus many of the countries are experiencing the same shortages that the other medical supplies as well weve been hearing about this over the past few weeks and that is why the current Health Minister says that its just not possible to test everyone. Today we dont just automatically so far we made a choice like most countries and as per the european recommendation. For the priority members of the public the targeted people are just like the neighboring European Countries those who are most at risk. Of 19 is cause panic across the world and each country is handling the crisis in the way that it feels is best and it could of course be months before we see a fax developed and a vaccine usable humans and what governments including the one here in france are calling for is a sense of togetherness that we are all in this together this is a sense of unity so perhaps it would feel at the moment a legal complaint like this is particularly unwelcome. In our coronavirus coverage. News across the pond where all across europe numbers are varying quite dramatically it only now becoming the new virus hotspot both in confirmed cases and death tolls meanwhile german chancellor Angela Merkel goes into quarantine after the realization that her doctor tested positive for cocaine 18 but russia who shares a border with china where the pandemic is believed to have begun has only had infections in the low triple digits earlier i was joined by former u. K. M. P. George galloway to discuss heres what some of what he had to say. Well of course those theres a curve and people are at different stages in the car of its a truism here in britain that we are 2 weeks behind italy in which case theres going to be a lot of bells tolling in britain in the next couple of weeks because that is well and truly told for italy quite staggering or overwhelming numbers of dead and the misery in the north of italy can almost be felt. By those who love it to the. People but the good news there is the the rates of death in italy while still staggeringly high how fallen for 2 consecutive days fewer people died on sunday than on soft of the few our people are dying today according to the figures just out of italy saw the social distancing the quarantine the discipline which is belatedly setting in in the north of italy might be working for france is in a bad place britain spain is the 2nd war stuff by far some shocking footage out of spanish hospitals of patients lying on the floor patients lying in the street. And so on it is it is extraordinary as you say and i was thinking when i was listening to your friends report there it is amazing that countries like france like britain that gore around the world projecting themselves as world powers which are fantastic really rich havent even laid in for a rainy day stocks or fleece mosques i mean this mosque in manila because i have an asian wife who laid them in years ago just in case wed ever need them youd think these big powerful countries might have done the same absolutely i am and myself and asian wife and we have a stock of those for any given reason because you just never know and as early as we know the backlash amongst asians across the world for having the stock of mass and thats a whole different topic george staying in europe you mentioned these staggering numbers in italy glad to hear that they are finally beginning to fall at least the death toll is but do you think that that italian officials acted fast enough. Nor i mean nobody fast enough in europe or north america for that matter the russians are fast as youve just been hearing i was in St Petersburg and moscow all a few weeks ago and whilst the tourist industry in St Petersburg and particular is hugely dependent on chinese tourism there wasnt a chinese tourist to be found because russia sealed its borders and stopped all traffic from china the 1st drop this covered 19 virus and so some governments decisively and some did not the British Government is not even yet according to much of the Public Opinion down decisively. Off theres obviously a tension between address your knee and measures personal freedoms and so on the needs of Public Health but i suspect that the laughter is winning out there will be announced in the next day or 2 with that said for the time being the u. K. Is still acquired by member of the e. U. Should there be a uniformed response among e. U. Member states to also follow suit like russia and shut down all borders or or do other measures to help flatten the curve. Well it is wrong that weve taken control in order to a low flights from the most infected there is charging up. Are still arriving right no british airports its quite extraordinary i believe im Old Fashioned i believe we should all follow the World Health Organization on issues like. Mix these have nothing to do with National Sovereignty or politics its fun to us to be casting aspersions on this all of our part of the world we all need to pull together the best advice is the best advice wherever it came from me i trust doctors rather than politicians and my own doctor warned me many many weeks ago that this was going to be a thought again disaster and george before we go we got to go real quickly but until a merkel as of now we dont know if she has actually tested for kobe 1000 but she is self quarantining at this time because she has come under exposure of a confirmed case u. S. Senator rand paul has officially tested positive for the virus hes the 1st u. S. Big named official to be confirmed. To be confirmed rather as positive but mr paul staff says that he was showing no signs he was asymptomatic so the question then comes. You having been a lawmaker yourself why was mr paul tested do you suppose that given the scarcity of tests here in america our Public Officials like u. S. Lawmakers are they cutting the queue and should that be taken by all other global leaders. Sprues the drug dont often broom in aid thats the will of the world the. Door got tested positive just a couple of weeks ago a lot of people were upset about that because virtually nobody in britain has been tested unless theyve arrived at the hospital already sick and of course he paid for it ron paul has a shilling or 2 for his own interest its not the way i would order the world but i guess that is the way of the world all right well leave it right there as always appreciate your insights George Galloway thank you. Lets head over to the world of sports where we can find regina hamm sitting in regina there was a huge announcement form from the International Olympic committee that just broke recently so what was it it was very soon but it was really much of a surprise because a large numbers of sporting events have been canceled or postponed due to the current virus now it does seem though that the fate of the tokyo 2020 summer olympics is no longer up in the air that are in canadian i.
