Pelosi, citing 'leverage' over Trump, holds strong to $2.2T in COVID-19 aid
The Hill: Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Tuesday shot down entreaties from some Democrats to cut a $1.8 trillion deal with the White House on coronavirus relief, arguing that President Trump's pleas for Congress to "go big" have given her leverage to hold out for more aid.
"I appreciate the, shall we say, a couple people saying, ‘Take it, take it, take it,’" Pelosi said in a phone conference with Democrats, according to source on the call. "Take it? Take it? Even the president is saying, ‘Go big or go home.’"
