White House says not blocking money for U.S. coronavirus testing

The White House is not blocking funding for more coronavirus testing requested by President Donald Trump’s fellow Republicans, Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said on Tuesday.

“No one is blocking any money from testing. One of the things I would add is that this is an ongoing negotiation. We’re just in the early days of that. Currently in the federal coffers we have $10 billion…unspent that is allocated for testing,” McEnany said at a press briefing.
