House Democrats are expected to vote on the bill, modeled after President Biden
“I feel as if we've worked the staff 24/7 for a number of weeks now to make sure that we stay on schedule with the American Rescue Plan, the Biden plan,” Speaker Nancy Pelosi
Pelosi is hoping to have the bill on the floor by Friday, but it first needs to go through both the Budget and Rules Committees.
The Budget Committee is scheduled to meet on Monday, where it will condense the various pieces of the package into one bill. The panel is expected to need to tweak the package, which is currently estimated to cost more than the $1.889 trillion allowed under a budget resolution that included the instructions for crafting the coronavirus bill.
