Cousins!
Lawmakers and officials are currently closing in on an official agreement for the long awaited and very much necessary second round of stimulus checks!
As of right now Coronavirus aide relief plan promises to focus on vaccine distribution funding, providing funds to schools, small businesses, unemployment, postal services, people in need of food and shelter.
According to CNBC News, lawmakers are currently in talks of forwarding $600 per individual with a proposed $600 for each child in relief funding.
As we previously reported adults making under $75,000 were originally forwarded $1,200 per adult including couples making a combined income of less than $150,000 with $500 for all children under 17 years old.
Sources have confirmed that senators Bernie Sanders and Josh Hawley are currently fighting to have the subjected payments increased to $1,200.
Tomorrow I will go to the Senate floor to ask for an up or down vote on my bill to provide a direct payment of $1200 to working Americans, $2400 for couples, $500 for kids. This is the #covid relief working families need

“Tomorrow I will go to the Senate floor to ask for an up or down vote on my bill to provide a direct payment of $1,200 to working Americans, $2,400 for couples, $500 for kids,” reads a tweet from Hawley on Thursday. “This is the Covid relief working families need.”
Bernie also argues that “Congress can’t go home for the Christmas holidays until we pass legislation which provides a $1,200 direct payment to working class adults, $2,400 for couples and $500 for kids,” says Sanders within a tweet on Tuesday.
Over 60 grassroots organizations representing millions of people are demanding Congress provide $1,200 direct payments to working-class adults and $500 to kids.
