Fewer Americans may get a second stimulus check. What we know about the next round of payments

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Another batch of one-time stimulus checks could be coming. But this time, far fewer Americans could get paid.

President Donald Trump has made it clear that he wants to include another batch of checks in the next coronavirus legislation.

But Senate Republicans have been slow to warm to the idea. One reason: the high cost of cutting millions of checks to Americans.

Now, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., is considering a compromise: disbursing funds to people making $40,000 or less a year.

3. That is targeted to right income level where the money will be a major shot in the arm,....

4. I never got the first one and I'm due $1200

Website is useless. Trying to call the IRS is extremely problematic. Don't want to hold for over an hour.

I will probably end up claiming it (as a credit) on my 2020 tax return next year.

11. Me neither. Called House Ways and Means Cmte. 5 times Nada.

Called Senator's office today 2nd time. Nada.My accounts are all in order. The incompetents distributed $1.4B to dead people though.

5. 40k ain't gonna cut it with a lot of people. That's going to lose...

6. I filed taxes Apr 2, I am due 1K and have not received it. I want extended unemployment even if

they cut it in half and ya, stimulus, but get me my refund. It is OWED me.

9. It's sorely needed. Even at over $40,000. As is the unemployment extension

The economy will get a lot worse without the help, and it can be argued that COVID-19 is more rampant than at the time of the other packages.

Help could have been given a long time ago if Repukes hadn’t stalled.

and do everything I can to crush Trump. Vote Blue No Matter Who!!
