Ten Republican senators have actually agreed to continue talks with the White House in an effort to negotiate a bipartisan coronavirus relief package, after a two-hour meeting with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris on Monday night ended short of a breakthrough.

The lack of any significant advance in between the two sides means that Democrats are most likely to continue to push ahead rapidly with plans to push through Biden’s much bigger package without Republican assistance.

Biden’s plan is likewise more generous in extending boosted unemployment insurance coverage.
