Now the house physically there, in person, some Wearing Masks to make sure they get this done. Lets get the latest from chad pergram, how this will all sort of fan out. Chad . Reporter hey there, neil. This is the debate. They started 15 minutes ago on this bill, about 324 billion of this goes to Small Businesses. You might recall a couple weeks ago that fund ran dry. The cupboard is bare. The cost of this bill ballooned from 251 billion specifically to Small Business, to 484 billion as you say. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says democrats improved the bill. There is money in here for hospitals and testing. Listen to the speaker. Im very pleased that it was transformed from a bill two weeks ago on the floor where the leader in the senate said, this is it, 250. Were no
