Senators agreed on a $10 billion Covid-19 aid package, people familiar said, well below what the White House originally requested for vaccines and treatments
WASHINGTON—Senators have agreed on a $10 billion spending deal to further fund the U.S. response totwo aides familiar with the matter said, well below what the White House originally requested for vaccines and therapeutics.
The package will allow the U.S. to purchase supplies, including more tests and vaccines, that the Biden administration said would be needed to continue to fight the virus. Lawmakers were unable to reach an agreement on money to help poor nations address the pandemic, and that funding won’t be in the deal, according to the aides.
