"The new bill, named the Emergency Money for the People Act is being introduced by Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, and Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif.
“A one-time, twelve hundred dollar check isn’t going to cut it,” said Khanna in a statement. “Americans need sustained cash infusions for the duration of this crisis in order to come out on the other side alive, healthy, and ready to get back to work.
Every American age 16 and older making less than $130,000 annually would receive at least $2,000 per month. Married couples earning less than $260,000 would receive $4,000 per month.
Families with children would get $500 per child per month for up to three children."
That would be amazing, bring us back to teacher levels of income, and would help so much with some long-needed house repairs. I know exactly where that money would go and it would boost the economy so much. With that much, I could help out others as well, because while it seems like a lot to me, I don't have to think very long to come up with situations where more would be needed. Single parents for example. Or those with medical debt. People with out good, stable living conditions.
