U.S. Senate Passes Massive $1.9 Trillion Economic Stimulus Relief Bill, House Plans Final Approval Tuesday
Monday, March 8, 2021
Vancouver, BC, March 8, 2021--The Senate passed a $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief and economic stimulus package on Saturday as Democrats rush to send out a fresh round of aid. The Democratic-held House aims to pass the bill on Tuesday before a March 14 deadline to renew unemployment aid programs. The Senate approved the plan in a 50-49 party line vote as Republicans questioned the need for another broad spending package. The legislation includes direct payments of up to $1,400 to most Americans, a $300 weekly boost to jobless benefits and an expansion of the child tax credit.
