Rep. Louie Gohmert, a Texas Republican, said Monday that he'll hold up the already-passed House coronavirus bill, as Congress struggles to find a legislative fix to help Americans during the ongoing crisis. #CoronaVirus,' Gohmert tweeted Monday afternoon. But Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell cancelled the Senate's recess, knowing the upper chamber would have to vote to approve the House's bill. Now it looks like a vote on the House bill won't happen in the Senate for several days. While Reps. Mark Meadows - the incoming White House chief of staff - Paul Gosar, Matt Gaetz, Doug Collins and Sen. Ted Cruz decided to self-quarantine, Gohmert decided against it.
