Welcome to the Matrix
Congress is back, and so are we.
After a tepid two months with little action, debate over phase four (we are going to call it “P4” until it receives a more formal name) of congressional COVID-19 relief has kicked into overdrive with the anticipated release of the GOP proposal. The Republican P4 package will cue up weeks of negotiations, as the country hurtles towards the July 31 expiration of enhanced unemployment insurance and the August 7 recess.
Our note today discusses what to expect in the soon-to-be-released GOP plan and outlines the path forward. It also includes predictions that have been curated and informed by our resident political pundit and PRG Principal, Liam Donovan.
