Joe Biden Says Stimulus Package
Stalled Because Republicans Fear
Retribution from Trump
11/18/20
President-elect Joe Biden on
Wednesday blamed the ongoing
stimulus deadlock on Republicans'
fear of retribution from President
Donald Trump amid rising coronavirus
cases in most U.S. states.
Biden expressed optimism that
Republicans in Congress would
address his party's calls for
state and local funding when
Trump leaves office. He also
vowed to prioritize a stimulus
deal after his inauguration.
In a virtual event with frontline
health care workers, Biden suggested
that the GOP has declined Democrats'
demand for local funding to be
included in the next stimulus package
because of their "fear of retribution
from the president."
