The upper chamber was expected to vote on the massive package, which was pushed through by Democrats, on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>However, lawmakers are reportedly still waiting for guidance from the Congressional Budget Office. Senate Democrats are also reportedly negotiating further limits to the bill.<\/p>\n<p>GOP lawmakers, including&nbsp;Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, have continued to accuse Democrats of pushing through a bill that does not have Americans\u2019 best interest in mind.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">What the American people need are fast-acting plans to open schools now, get laid-off Americans into jobs, and finish the fight against COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>The Democrats\u2019 plan doesn\u2019t focus on that. It manages to spend ~$2T while leaving the most urgent things on the cutting room floor. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6UyBLBZPsH\">pic.twitter.com\/6UyBLBZPsH<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Leader McConnell (@LeaderMcConnell) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LeaderMcConnell\/status\/1367178787763462144?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 3, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>McConnell went on to say the legislation could get some support from Republicans only after the Democrats remove all of their partisan wish list items.
