NOTABLE: @NICK_AYERS — who is serving as a backchannel between the WH & Wall Street re: how to save the economy — suggests cruise lines incorporated offshore should NOT GET STIMULUS $, unless they re-locate to US & pay US taxes.

Per a Democratic aide, the bill was help up by Chuck Schumer’s insistence on language that requires Treasury to publish which businesses/entities gain financing from the bailout fund.

The Sasse amendment FAILS by a vote of 48-48.

It would have changed the bill to make sure nobody can get unemployment benefits that exceed what their wages were before losing the job.

The Senate is now voting on final passage.

THE VOTE BEGINS!

The final coronavirus package text is out and the Senate is about to start voting.

McConnell: "So here we are, colleagues."

Schumer: "It's been a long, long road with a remarkable number of twists and turns."

1st vote: Sasse amendment.

2nd vote: The full bill.

Both need 60.

Mitt sez:

We can't afford to wait any longer to send relief to those who need it. The Senate’s #COVID19 relief package supports workers, families, and businesses across the country. The Senate and House should pass this bill now and get it to the President’s desk. https://t.co/hXc3Auv0Zp

Schumer is talking live right now on the Senate floor! Being played on CNN. He's like on adrenaline, very alert and excited. McConnell spoke before him, much shorter statement. Chuck is elaborating on details of the bill, like a victor, calls it an "outstanding agreement" and said "help is on the way, big help and quick help."

Schumer, from reporters on scene:

Schumer says the bill has “unemployment compensation on steroids.” Says every American laid off will have their missed salary remunerated. Will enable companies to stay afloat and immediately bring back those employees when things are safe

Schumer: “We have a bipartisan agreement in the largest rescue package in American history.”
