US is closing in on an agreement to aid the economic loss of small businesses by utilizing extra finances. The deal which is supposed to be closed in on Monday is now inching closer by the days.

This made Trump state that he was up for the plan but at present, he wasn’t in favour of it. He also stated that he would like to include it in his future legislation plans.
