WASHINGTON—The first U.S. senator tested positive for the novel coronavirus Sunday and two more entered self-quarantine as a precaution, raising questions about the ability of Congress to continue meeting as it races to pass a crucial economic rescue package. Sen. Rand Paul (R., Ky.) tested positive on Sunday morning, his staff said, adding that he is in quarantine and isn’t experiencing symptoms. Two of his Republican colleagues, Sens. Mike Lee and Mitt Romney of Utah, then began a 14-day self-quarantine.
