Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin was spotted heading into Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's office today.

He said he's in contact Rep. Mark Meadows, who is Trump's incoming chief of staff, and he's "looking forward" to getting a coronavirus stimulus deal done today.

“Mark Meadows and I have already spoken to the President twice this morning. We’re going to have conference calls with a bunch of Republicans to update them on where we are. And we’re on our way to Mitch McConnell’s office, we’re looking forward to closing a bipartisan bill today. The President wants us to get this done today. We’re down to a small number of issues and we look forward to a successful vote," he said.

Where things stand now: Pressure has been intensifying for days on the Senate to pass a massive stimulus package to respond to the economic fallout of the coronavirus, but Monday came and went without much action.

After four straight days of marathon negotiations, the Trump administration and senators again failed to secure an agreement on a roughly $2 trillion plan to provide a jolt to the economy and give aid to hard-hit workers and industries.

But leaders emerged from late-night meetings in the Capitol optimistic that a deal could be struck today despite tweets from President Trump trashing the deal and baselessly accusing Democrats of siding with "the virus."
