Senate GOP to hold a vote on 'skinny' COVID-19 relief package

After weeks of negotiations, Congress and the White House have failed to reach a deal on the next coronavirus relief package. Now Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConell says he will force a vote on a Republican-led proposal this week. Meanwhile President Trump and Joe Biden are ramping up their campaigns in the final weeks ahead of the November election. CBS News correspondent Nikole Killion and Politico White House correspondent Anita Kumar join Elaine Quijano on CBSN's "Red & Blue" with the latest from Washington.

What a joke... they really don’t care about the ppl. 🤦🏻‍♂️

We need to be voting on their insane amount of paid vacations they have been on that we pay for. But the only thing they do for us in 7 months is one check. Meanwhile they are living their best life.

I’m so fine tired of them holding our relief hostage.

[Mictla]

How is it that our government is so slow to react for the millions in need? They bloody work for us not the other way around.

Please, for the love of God, make sure the billionaires make it out OK with this bill. I pray to Jesus.
