President-elect Joe Biden is finalizing his COVID relief plan, which he's expected to unveil tomorrow and it will likely include $2,000 stimulus payments.

Meanwhile, Sen. Marco Rubio is pushing for Congress to approve the $2,000 payments immediately.

Axios reports Florida's Republican senator urged Biden to immediately call on Congress for the relief last night.

In a letter, Rubio said it would be a sign of unity and Americans desperately need it.
