'Urgent' COVID-19 funding hangs in balance amid partisan fight
Funding for the next phase of the COVID-19 fight is hanging in the balance amid a showdown over new spending in Congress.
The White House is calling for $22.5 billion for "immediate" needs ahead of next week's government funding deadline, but Republicans are resisting the request, saying the billions already provided to fight the virus should be spent first before Congress approves new money.
The administration, though, says the previous money is "nearly all" used up.
Without approval of the request for new funding, the White House says critical steps to fight the virus and prepare for a future variant will have to stop.
