Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell announced Sunday a coronavirus aid deal was nearly complete as lawmakers rushed to complete work ahead of a midnight government spending deadline. Lawmakers may run out of time and could have to pass another brief stopgap bill while they draft the aid legislation.

“We’re winnowing down the remaining differences,” McConnell said when the Senate floor opened for an unusual Sunday session. “I believe I can speak for all sides when I say, I hope and expect to have a final agreement nailed down in a matter of hours.”
