Trump Wants to give USD$2,000 to each American as Covid-19 Aid and Rejected the Earlier Relief Bill Due to too Low
From what we know the United States has been hit badly by the Covid-19 pandemic which are currently left with many jobless and some even the worst. Now currently the government is under affect where they have to bail out businesses and support residents through this financially tough time. As a million of families is supposed to receive some financial support from the federal government as a part of the US$892 billion relief for the coronavirus, but it was delayed by Trump’s.
According to Reuters, Trump mentioned the coronavirus relief bill did not provide enough support for small business as he believes the stipulated US$600 stimulus for each American is too low and demanded that citizen receives US$2,000 instead.
The US$892 billion actually includes the extension of 2 programs which will support self-employed workers and long term unemployed until mid March next year but Trump rejected the bill because he felt Americans were receiving enough financial support and currently because of this they are getting nothing at all.
As currently, if it continues onwards, it will leave some Americans homeless soon and landlords can evict tenants who can’t afford to pay rents. The estimation of around 40 million people could face eviction over the next several months according to the research from the Aspen Institute.
On Wednesday, 23 December, Trump has voted a US$740 billion defense bill to fund the military for 2021 and the bill has passed every year in the US since 1961, which this bill includes the pay raise for America’s soldier and modernization of the equipment and other stuff.
