In an effort to provide support for small businesses, restaurants, and bars, Illinois's senior U.S. Senator says he's putting his political differences aside and asking for help across the aisle.

Senator Dick Durban said although the Senate passed a $2 trillion COVID-19 stimulus back in March, American's need more support.

Gov. Pritzker recently announced the state would be borrowing $2 billion from the Federal Government to help with the loss of state tax revenues in hopes the Biden administration and congress will pass a second stimulus package once sworn into office.

Durbin, who was recently re-elected to his fifth term, said he's hoping his bipartisan effort will lead to a second stimulus package.
