Relief talks show GOP divisions

Relief talks show GOP divisions Alexander Bolton © Greg Nash Relief talks show GOP divisions Splits among Republicans are complicating GOP efforts to get on the same page in talks on a coronavirus relief deal, underscoring intraparty divisions ahead of two runoff elections in Georgia next month that will determine the Senate majority. Some GOP lawmakers on Wednesday expressed frustration that Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin has stepped in with a $916 billion offer to Democrats after it was decided that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) would take the lead in talks with Democrats. Republican senators say that Mnuchin s eleventh-hour proposal to include $600 stimulus checks in a stalled coronavirus relief deal - and offset the cost in part by significantly reducing supplemental federal unemployment benefits - has added a big new wrinkle to the talks.

Durbin to become top Democrat on Judiciary panel, keep No 2 spot

Whether Durbin will be chairman of the Judiciary Committee or ranking member will be determined next month because the two Georgia runoff elections will decide which party controls the Senate majority. Democrats also still need to formally approve who their top members on committees will be for the next Congress. The power struggle marked a rare point of division among a Senate Democratic caucus that has prided itself on unity during the past four years. The battle spilled into public view after it tapped into long-simmering frustrations among younger and newer members about the perceived bottleneck to acquiring top committee and subcommittee positions.
