This morning, House Majority Whip Steny Hoyer said Democrats hope to have a voice vote, and told reporters that he hasn't spoken to Rep. Massie but he's spoken to McCarthy.

\"I talked to McCarthy last night. We're working together to get this done,\" he said.

Republicans were also fuming they have to come back to Washington to vote on the bill.

\"Heading to Washington to vote on pandemic legislation. Because of one Member of Congress refusing to allow emergency action entire Congress must be called back to vote in the House. Risk of infection and risk of legislation being delayed. Disgraceful. Irresponsible,\" Rep. Peter King, R-NY, tweeted.

The president, as well, took to Twitter this morning to criticize the Kentucky congressman, calling him a \"third rate grandstander\" and for his removal from the Republican Party.

...& costly. Workers & small businesses need money now in order to survive. Virus wasn’t their fault. It is “HELL” dealing with the Dems, had to give up some stupid things in order to get the “big picture” done. 90% GREAT! WIN BACK HOUSE, but throw Massie out of Republican Party!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 27, 2020

Senior GOP sources say they are figuring out \"contingency plans\" if Massie does call for a roll call vote.
