If there’s another strong jobs report in June, “then I think it would absolutely affect the things that we pursue in July in the Phase 4 deal,” Kevin Hassett, a senior advisor to President Trump, says about coronavirus relief.
" that "the odds of there being a phase four deal are really close to 100%," even after the jobs data for last month far exceeded expectations.
The strong report may have allowed the Trump administration to narrow its plans for a fourth "phase" of coronavirus relief. If the jobs report for June shows similar figures, it could further lift the pressure on Republicans and the White House to consider the more sweeping aid measures proposed by Democrats.
"We had a really good month of jobs numbers, if we get another month like that in June, then I think it would absolutely affect the things that we pursue in July in the phase four deal," Hassett said.
