Negotiations on Capitol Hill over a stimulus deal remain deadlocked despite optimism earlier in the day. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said there won't be aid for airlines without a broader package, quashing hopes of a stand-alone bill that could garner bipartisan support. However, Pelosi and the White House have apparently renewed talks on a broader package. American Airlines CEO, meanwhile, is warning of additional service cuts if aid does not come through soon. The airlines started furloughing more than 30,000 workers last week.
Here are some of the biggest developments Thursday:
- Pelosi says no stand-alone aid for airlines without bigger stimulus bill
- Second presidential debate between Trump and Biden will be virtual
- Regeneron requests emergency use approval for antibody treatment
- Sam's Club sells smaller dinners as Americans downsize holiday plans
