We should not adjourn until the Senate holds a vote on both measures.

The end a a veto override and the House bill to provide $2000 checks for the American people.

As we all know, the majority leader controls the schedule on the floor.

So Leader McConnell holds the key to unlocking this dilemma.

So in a moment I will move to have the Senate take up the House bill to increase that number to $2000 which, I might add, had broad bipartisan support.

I don't want to hear that we can't afford it.

I don't want to hear that it would add too much to the deficit.

Senate Republicans added nearly two trillion to the deficit to give corporations a massive tax cut.

Republicans just far to include a tax break for three martini lunches in the covert relief bill.

So I don't want to hear it that it costs too much to help working families get a check when they're struggling to keep their jobs, pay their families, pay their rent, feed their families.

Will Senate Republicans fight for a vote on the House passed cash act Or will they look some other way with the senator?

Modify his request to include a unanimous consent request that you to include unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the immediate consideration of HR 9051 A bill received from the House to increase recovery rebate amounts to $2000 per of individual that the bill be read a third time and passed the motion to reconsider, be considered made and laid upon the table with no intervening action or debate.

 Is there objection to the modification object Objection is heard.
