Thursday's coronavirus relief bill was stopped in the Senate by coming up short with a vote of 52-47. With all Democrats voting no, they say the Republican's should be spending more because of those struggling during the pandemic.

"If we don't spend any more money more people are going to be evicted more people are going to lose jobs," said Sherrod Brown, U.S. Senator (D-OH).

Senator Brown said a compromised relief package could be passed before the end of the year but blames Republicans for not wanting to spend more money. Brown says Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is the reason negotiations have not happened.

"We could do this tomorrow if he would sit an negotiate with democrats a real plan that meets public needs," Brown said. 

The Republicans say this is really all about politics, claiming Democrats turned the bill down because they don't want to deliver a bipartisan bill to President Trump before November's election.

Congressman Bill Johnson (R-OH) told 21 News that Democrats are just blocking more direct aid from going to Americans. "Senate Democrats don’t want President Trump to get a “win” less than two months before the election, and if it hurts the American people in the process, that’s a price they are willing to pay," Johnson said. 

Congressman Tim Ryan (D-OH) said he doesn't see a budge from Republicans making negotiations.

"They offer a solution less than a month or two ago and the problem's getting significantly worse. I'm not optimistic to be quite frankly," Ryan said. 

Senator Rob Portman said on CNBC that a solution could come if both sides negotiate in a non-partisan way.

"Let's get back to that approach focusing not on the politics but on the substance," Portman said. "I think we could get something done."

If or when the Senate creates a compromised plan, it then has to go through the House for approval.
