White House, senior Republicans pour cold water on short-term unemployment extension

[RandySF]

The White House and top Senate Republicans are pouring cold water on the prospect of a short-term unemployment extension.

Republican senators were discussing a short-term extension to provide a patch between the expiration of a $600-per week plus up and Congress’s next relief bill.

"We're really trying to look at trying to make sure that we have a comprehensive bill that deals with the issues. Any short-term extensions would defy the history of Congress, which would indicate that it would just be met with another short-term extension," White House chief of staff Mark Meadows told reporters on Wednesday.
