in the President's proposal'

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday slammed the White House's most recent stimulus proposal as ignoring key economic issues wrought by the coronavirus pandemic, defending her decision to turn down what she described as a political stunt that would fail to help the public.

"All of my colleagues -- we represent these people, I have for over 30 years represented my constituents," Pelosi told CNN's Wolf Blitzer on "The Situation Room." "I know what their needs are, I listen to them, and their needs are not addressed in the President's proposal."

When asked whether she could avoid letting the perfect be the enemy of the good, Pelosi replied, "I will not let the wrong be the enemy of the right."

Pelosi's comments come after Majority Leader Mitch McConnell announced Senate Republicans will attempt to move forward on a "targeted" coronavirus relief bill when the Senate returns to session next week -- a sign that prospects for broad stimulus agreement have all but faded before Election Day.
