I hope that’s $2000 every month until the pandemic ends. A one time payment is not enough.

It should be more targeted and distributed to people that actually need it.

$2000 for every working adult every month indefinitely. No strings attached . Its time for working people to be included in the economy and not just provide labor.

Needs to be nontaxable, & in perpetuity. Not counting decades of military budgets & other corporate subsidies, the 1% has stolen $50 trillion from the bottom 90%. It's time to redistribute that money back to us.

Retroactive! It is the only way for Americans to get back to where they were while our politicians bath in the glory of inequality, IPO'S and stock options from their benefactors. General strike for M4A and retroactive covid relief now!!!
