President Biden signaled he is open to Democratic lawmakers using a special budget procedure that would allow them to pass a massive coronavirus rescue package with only a simple majority of senators.

“I support passing COVID relief with support from Republicans if we can get it. But the COVID relief has to pass. No ifs, ands, or buts,” Biden told reporters on Friday when asked if he supports the use of reconciliation to pass the bill without clearing the chamber’s usual 60-vote threshold for legislation.
