USA Lifeline?

The GOP claims to be for the working class. They sure have an awkward way of showing it , but will Republicans continue to pay the price? Did you know that your employer no longer has to provide any paid sick leave to workers who get infected with #COVID19 after Republicans blocked that extension?

After 9 months of painstaking negotiation and partisan finger-pointing, Congress has resoundingly passed a sweeping #COVID19 relief package that will send millions of Americans direct payments and rescue thousands of small businesses nationwide struggling to stay open in the face of the pandemic's suffocating grip. A total of 5,593-pages, spending $2.3-Trilllion dollars. 

The US House and The Senate passed a $900 billion pandemic relief package. The legislation provides for cash payments to most Americans and helps pay for national vaccination efforts as coronavirus case numbers dramatically continue to rise.

Congress passed the $900 billion #COVID stimulus bill that includes several special provisions for the film and TV industry, and an extension of a tax break for studios and production companies and billions for small theater chains.

The White House has said that President Donald Trump will sign the legislation once it reaches his desk. But what’s happening here in these United States of America, and where is the real love for the average struggling family? $600 per person after all the anguish?
