The Labor Department’s grim unemployment report has placed new pressure on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to take a larger stimulus deal so that Americans struggling to pay for food and rent can receive quick relief, as coronavirus cases surge across the country.

Jeremy Funk, a spokesperson for Accountable.US, a non-partisan government corruption watchdog, condemned McConnell for dismissing the bipartisan proposal.

“Mitch McConnell is apparently ready to ruin the holidays and the economy for working families and small businesses unless he gets his way,” Funk said in a statement. “McConnell must pass a serious relief bill to provide help where it is actually needed, like the communities of color that were left behind during previous pandemic relief efforts.”
