Sanders urges reconciliation process as lawmakers grapple dwith coronavirus relief bill

U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders urged the Senate on Wednesday to move forward with a reconciliation process that would make it easier to pass a large coronavirus economic relief bill.

"If Democrats are to address the enormous crises facing working people, and keep faith with the campaign promises we made, we must go forward aggressively with the Senate reconciliation process. There is no alternative. Now is the time for bold action," Sanders said in a Twitter post.
