A sweeping proposal from Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Kamala Harris (D-CA) is gaining traction in Democratic Party circles. Their plan would give most Americans recurring $2,000 monthly checks until the end of the coronavirus crisis.

Per The Hill:

There’s no guarantee the costly proposal will make it into the final coronavirus package that will eventually be negotiated by the Trump administration and Democratic leaders.

Republicans, who control the Senate, are balking at the idea even as the president concedes more aid may be needed for workers.

But on a call with Democrats this week, sources said Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) endorsed the monthly relief checks — the greatest indication yet that she could include the plan in the CARES 2 package that House Democrats plan to unveil in the coming days.

“The government has told people we need to shelter in place to keep safe. So it’s the government’s obligation to provide for basic expenses while we’re telling people not to work. It’s really that simple,” Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), a progressive leader who has authored legislation calling for more relief checks, told The Hill.

An April poll from MONEY/Morning Consult shows that 60 percent of Americans say the initial $1,200 stimulus check isn’t sufficient to get through the pandemic.

  1. That’s buying votes, surely McConnell and the GOP know that as well as Jordan and McCarthy in the House, so NO is the answer.

  2. Insanity that the Dems. want $2000.00 p.m. extra pay check !. They need to be reminded that money does not grow on trees : if they want an extra paycheck, they NEED to work for it !What is their aim ? Bankcrupt the nation ?

  3. Hogwash. Just a normal DEmocrat tactic to buy votes. Free, free, free. If you are not over55 years old you are going to get a bi bill for this helping the Dems to stuff the ballot box.

  6. Screw this “Free Money” bullshit, Let get back to work. How long does anyone think the
    “Free Money” will last? And get the idea out of your heads that it’s free. The Democrats already have a tax increase in mind to pay for all the BS in the first one and are happy to add more for a continuation. Does anyone believe these Democrat Governors are concerned about us getting Covid-19? They’re setting us up to tax the living daylights out of us. Push the bastards in the State Capitols to get off their asses and open things up. How long do you think the banks, credit card companies, Power companies, etc are going to wait before they start turning off services, repossessing cars and foreclosing mortgages? These politicians, who are free to utilize insider trading and getting first dibs on stuff will be thrilled to line their pockets with the fruits of our labors.

  7. Politicians just love to spend your hard earned dollars don’t they? Before these same yahoos decide to raid the Treasury, let’s take stock of who really needs this extra help.(translate into extra votes) Not many will if businesses are allowed to open their doors and people can get back to work. So instead of wasting tax payer dollars like all good democrats want to do, let’s just keep it simple, and go work for it. Work, I know that’s a novel concept that democrat politicians aren’t used to.
