WASHINGTON -- House Democrats on Capitol Hill are moving ahead with another coronavirus aid package, with a vote planned for Friday.

The proposed $3 trillion plan, which was rolled out Tuesday, comes on top of the trillions of dollars Congress has already approved in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.

The roughly 1,800 page bill includes funding for hospitals, hazard pay for essential workers, another round of direct payments to the American public, money for the postal service, among other things.

The top-dollar item is roughly $1 trillion in aid for states and local governments that are feeling a financial pinch amid the pandemic. Assistance for states was one of the sticking points during negotiations on the last aid package.

North Carolina lawmakers who spoke with Spectrum News were split along party lines when asked about the proposal.

Rep. Alma Adams, D-12th District, said she plans on voting for the coronavirus package, arguing action is needed.

“If we want our communities and the people that we represent to continue to live on after this pandemic, then I think we have to do something for them now,” Adams said.

Adams says some ideas she has advocated for got incorporated into the bill, including assistance for school food programs.

“We’ve got to make that sure our children are fed. We have a food insecurity issue,” she said. “
“The school system is trying to do what it can and get food out. Our food pantries are overwhelmed.”

Already, several North Carolina Republicans have come out against the proposal. On Twitter, Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-5th District, labeled it a “sham.”

Rep. Mark Walker, R-6th District, likened it to a Democratic wishlist.

“It looks like they brought all the Democrats in on a Zoom video call and said, ‘What do you want? What do you want? What do you want?’ and put it all in one package,” he said.

Congress already came together on a bipartisan basis to approve several coronavirus aid packages that, when combined, total more than $2 trillion. But with some sticking points already surfacing, negotiations on this next round could be a bit bumpier.

“It looks like everything is political, even when coming to people helping people who are struggling and hurting,” Walker said.

House lawmakers are being asked to return to Washington ahead of an expected vote on the bill this Friday.

However, the bill is not expected to go anywhere in the U.S. Senate, where it has essentially been described as dead on arrival.
