The U.S. Senate has finally reached an agreement to include a $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package in the stimulus bill. The debate started Friday, which includes the reading of the 628 pages bill.
Senate Approves Biden's $1.9 Trillion COVID-19 Stimulus Bill
After more than 24 hours negotiation, Senate Democrats have decided to increase the length of federal unemployment benefits to help those who are disabled to aid the economy's recovery in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic. However, the agreement reached would not match the bills proposed by the House of Representatives last week, with the proposed weekly rate being reduced from $400 to $300.

Minimum wage amendment defeated in Senate, with Democrats against it


USA TODAY
WASHINGTON - A group of Democratic senators joined all Senate Republicans in voting against Sen. Bernie Sanders' proposal to increase the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour on Friday.
The Vermont independent tried to add the provision to President Joe Biden's COVID-19 stimulus bill as the Senate considered the $1.9 trillion measure. But the effort failed in a 58-42 vote with eight members of the Senate Democratic caucus voting against it. 
The vote started at 11:03 a.m. EST Friday and didn't officially end for nearly 12 hours as Democrats and Republicans negotiated changes to an extension of unemployment benefits. 
The outcome of the vote could spell trouble for future Democratic attempts to raise the minimum wage, something Biden included in his initial stimulus proposal that passed the House last week.
