The emerging agreement would include roughly $310 billion for the Paycheck Protection Program for small businesses, $75 billion for hospitals and $25 billion to expand COVID-19 testing.
Lawmakers and the Trump administration are locked in negotiations over who takes the lead on expanded testing. Democrats are pushing for a plan that puts the federal government at the center, and the Trump administration wants states to take the lead on testing, according to WSJ.
