There were many dems in the house at the time that were willing to make the deal.
Some Republicans are now willing to concede on employer immunity, which is new, but McConnell still isn't. So this is not the same deal as before. And it's even smaller than the Republicans were insisting on before, so the Democrats have conceded further on that. Then there is the administration's proposal which is different from either the Democrats or Republicans. Some moderates have got together on a compromise, but so far McConnell is not on board, so it's simply not accurate to say the Democrats are blocking anything. The Republicans are equally responsible.
