Republican U.S. Sen. Scott blasts proposed industry bailouts

Republican Senator Rick Scott on Wednesday warned that he would not support bailouts for large U.S. companies in response to the coronavirus crisis and called on Washington to take a range of steps including expanded unemployment insurance.

In an opinion piece written for Fox Business, Scott said, "Let me be clear: We should not bail out large corporations that have enjoyed years of growth and prosperity. I won’t support it." His remarks came after the Trump administration has proposed helping U.S. commercial airliners.
