White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said Saturday that the size of the COVID-19 economic relief package has swelled to around 10 percent of the countrys gross domestic product, or $2 trillion, according to multiple reports.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe package is coming in at about 10 percent of GDP,\u201d Kudlow told reporters on March 21, according to a tweet by Bloomberg reporter Laura Litvan,<\/a> who noted that when fellow Bloomberg reporter Jack Fitzpatrick asked Kudlow to confirm whether the package would come in at over $2 trillion, the director of the National Economic Council replied in the affirmative.<\/p>\n

According to The Hill<\/a>, Kudlow called it a \u201cvery large package.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Capitol Hill, lawmakers and administration officials labored late into the evening Friday over eye-popping sums and striking federal interventions, surpassing even the 2008-09 bank bailout and stimulus.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody is working very hard,\u201d Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said, exiting one closed-door session and heading into another.<\/p>\n

While key negotiators said they made progress during the daylong talks, they failed to hit an end-of-day deadline to strike a deal. Talks broke around 10:30 p.m. on Friday.<\/p>\n

Mnuchin launched negotiations using McConnells GOP offer with Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and senators from both parties.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur nation needs a major next step, and we need it fast,\u201d McConnell said earlier in the day to an empty chamber. The iconic U.S. Capitol is closed to visitors.<\/p>\n

McConnell said the stimulus package will include direct financial help for Americans, relief for small businesses and their employees, steps to stabilize the economy, and new support for healthcare professionals and patients impacted by the CCP virus.<\/p>\n

The Epoch Times refers to the novel coronavirus, which originated from Wuhan, China and causes the disease COVID-19, as the CCP virus because the Chinese Communist Partys (CCP) coverup and mismanagement of the outbreak fueled its spread throughout China and across the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are ready to act as soon as agreement with our colleagues across the aisle can be reached,\u201d McConnell said on the Senate floor. \u201cThe Senate is not going anywhere until we take action.\u201d<\/p>\n
