I'm more skeptical. "Congress will likely need to" doesn't mean they necessarily will & they probably won't if only the invisible are suffering.I too wish it put more $ directly into people's hands - a lot more. It's basically safety for a few, just barely surviving for too many.
Glad that Congress has passed the stimulus package as people need it. I wish it went further and put more money directly into people’s hands. Congress will likely need to pass an additional stimulus soon as this crisis continues and doors remain closed.

The American People are walking a tightrope without an adequate safety net in case they fall. They are falling. We must rise up as citizens and use our collective voice... “This shall be no more.”

Yes & tying it to Unemployment is STUPID, cuz even though @SenSanders got 'self-employed' added it won't do anything if I can't figure out how to apply properly & get denied for not knowing process, if just a check to ALL no one will STAY on UI & go back to work @AndrewYang

Exactly. If a couple makes together $150k it’s very, very different from an individual making $25k yearly. Then add in increased cost of healthcare, food, housing...

We need to focus so much more on opening our hearts with compassion and raising the vibration of the planet. This virus came at a time when the future was looking so hopeless that I find it difficult to believe it doesn't have a mission to change everything for us.

I’m laid off but me and my wife made too much money last year to qualify. It makes no sense just send everyone a check and tax it appropriately in the year it is income. Is that so hard?

If the government doesn’t do anything, Nick Hanauer will be right - the hungry (and angry) mob will come with pitch forks!

I’m sorry but the fact that you endorsed Biden likely for an admin position disqualifies your opinion, motives & definitely judgement. U know & see his cognitive decline & realize rigging of machine votes vs exit polls. U have joined the corporate sellouts with the quid pro quo.

I agree with you, Marianne.
