Senate passes $2 trillion coronavirus relief bill — House aims for Friday vote
The Senate passed a historic $2 trillion coronavirus relief package Wednesday night, as it tries to stem the destruction the pandemic has brought to American lives and wallets.
The Senate approved the bill — the largest economic rescue package in U.S. history — in a unanimous 96-0 vote after days of negotiations and raised tempers on the Senate floor.
