WASHINGTON: U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said on Tuesday the offer President Donald Trump recently made on a coronavirus stimulus package after he scrapped talks fell far short of what the American people need but she still hopes a deal can be reached.
Pelosi, a Democrat, accused the Republican president of grasping for any agreement for political purposes before the Nov. 3 presidential election.
“The President’s attitude is shameful, when the need for immediate and meaningful action could not be more urgent,” she said in a letter to lawmakers. “Tragically, the Trump proposal falls significantly short of what this pandemic and deep recession demand.”
