Senator Murkowski Cautions Against Passing COVID Relief Through Budget Reconciliation, Open to Looking at Censure Resolution

Alaska Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski urges Democrats not to pass a COVID relief package through budget reconciliation but to seek bipartisan consensus on the measure. She also says she opposes adding a federal minimum wage increase to the bill, calling it "unnecessary." Asked about her views on a censure resolution against former President Donald Trump that's being floated by Virginia Democratic Senator Tim Kaine and Republican Senator Susan Collins, she says she would be open to looking at it. close
