This is new: McConnell says negotiators should drop both state and local and liability shield provisions in order to reach consensus on covid. Dems want state and local, McConnell called liability his “red line” — PolitiTweet.org

The bipartisan covid negotiating squad is now referring to themselves as the “908 coalition,” referring to the top line number. No one wants to be associated with a doomed Senate “gang” these days — PolitiTweet.org

Tough fight shaping up for Becerra at HHS. Cornyn says he is “pretty radical” “I don’t know what his health and human services credentials are. It’s not like Alex Azar who worked for Pharma and had a health care background” (Becerra is Calif. AG and served in House) — PolitiTweet.org

@fshakir "Working families and individuals ought to be first for Covid relief, and then we'll talk about everything else. I see some of these comments about ‘well, we just don't have any money left over,'” Hawley said. “We don't have money left over for people?" — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
Hawley also spoke to Bernie Sanders (!) about direct payments "Getting the $1,200 direct payments to workers during this unprecedented crisis should be a slam dunk. Sen. Hawley seems to understand that, and Sen. Sanders will talk to anyone to get this done," says @fshakir — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
“I said, ‘I think it's vital that any relief include direct payments, and I'm not gonna vote for it if it doesn't.’ And I also urged him to veto any bill that did not have direct payments in it,” Hawley said. He called it "wild" that nobody's proposal has this — PolitiTweet.org

NEWS: Sen. Josh Hawley urges President Trump to veto Covid bill that lacks new round of direct payment checks (bipartisan + McConnell proposals don't have it) "It's fair to say that [Trump] was surprised at the direction that some of these were headed" https://t.co/QFrTOZ5zCk — PolitiTweet.org

SIREN: Sen. Risch even talked to me for story on Coons. He likes him enough to do an interview with Politico “Chris is a natural when it comes to relationships, and primarily it’s because he’s so straightforward. When I talk to Chris, I know I’m not getting a line of baloney,” — PolitiTweet.org
Burgess Everett @burgessev
Coons worked on these relationships for a decade. Now's the time for pay off. Some Senate Rs called Coons right after the election, including Graham, who still won't recognize Biden as POTUS elect “He’s going to be one of the most influential people in the Senate," Graham says — PolitiTweet.org
