The end of 2020 is, thankfully, fast-approaching -- a deadline that's putting congressional leaders in a bit of a bind as they race to try and finish work that needs to be done on major legislation before the holidays.
One monumental task still confronting lawmakers has to do with the passage of another coronavirus relief package that may or may not include funding for new stimulus checks. President Trump, for his part, used the occasion of a new TV interview following his November 3 re-election loss to call for new stimulus checks "right now" and to lay the blame for their continued absence at the feet of, who else, Democrats. "Right now, I want to see checks -- for more money than they're talking about -- going to people," Trump said during an interview with Brian Kilmeade of Fox News that aired on Sunday. "I'm pushing it very hard, and to be honest with you, if the Democrats really wanted to do the deal, they'd do the deal."
