House Democrats are pushing forward with a massive fifth round of coronavirus relief legislation that could be their most far-reaching effort yet to address the economic fallout of the pandemic -- and come with another price tag in the trillions. AOC CITES NEED TO 'PLAY HARDBALL' ON CORONAVIRUS RELIEF PACKAGES, IN PUSH FOR $2,000 PER MONTH PAYMENTS"We're looking at a multitrillion-dollar bill," one House Democratic aide told Fox News. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi last week telegraphed that just the aid alone to hard-hit states and local governments could reach nearly $1 trillion. Leadership wants to bring the full House back early this month to vote on what would be the fifth major coronavirus relief bill. President Trump wants a payroll tax cut in this round of legislation, but Pelosi has rejected that idea.
