'McConnell is under pressure from the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives, which passed a new, wide-ranging coronavirus bill on Friday. '
'Earlier on Tuesday, House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy said he could support extending the time allowed for small businesses to use federal loans to keep their enterprises afloat during the coronavirus pandemic. '
'With a price tag of around $3 trillion, it is about equal to the cost of the four previous measures passed. '
'McConnell is pushing for new protections for businesses from liability lawsuits as they reopen. '
'Some lawmakers also have discussed the need to revise unemployment insurance provisions with the national jobless rate spiking to 14.7 percent in April. '
