Officials in President Biden’s administration on Sunday held a call with a bipartisan group of senators to discuss the White House’s proposed $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief package.

Several senators confirmed their participation in the call, with a couple of Democratic senators describing the conversation as “productive.”

Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) categorized the discussion as “refreshing” and and said it was “long overdue” to have the White House “fully engaged in addressing this pandemic with a focus on science and federal leadership.”

Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) said in a tweet that the call centered around “policy solutions,” adding that was ”notable in itself.”
“Let's keep working together to speed vaccine distribution and support Americans during this pandemic,” he posted.
