House to vote on $2T stimulus bill on Friday

House Majority Leader Stany Hoyer announced late on Wednesday the COVID-19 funding bill worth $2.2 trillion will be considered by the lower house on Friday. Additionally, he informed Congress members under coronavirus quarantine measures and others unable to make the vote, they needn’t come as the bill is expected to pass the House of Representatives by a voice vote. The stimulus bill was approved by the Senate earlier after House Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senate Republican Mitch McConnell previously reached an agreement on the relief package.
