Your $1,400 stimulus checks coming 'within a week' of approval: Rep. Jim Clyburn

The Senate’s budget resolution adoption on Friday puts Democrats one step closer to getting President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion fiscal stimulus passed -- with or without Republicans’ help.

With the Senate split evenly among Republicans and Democrats, Vice President Kamala Harris will be able to use her vote to break any ties to push through the relief plan.

House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D., S.C.) told Yahoo Finance that the $1.9 trillion price tag is enough to “rescue this economy,” but “should be bigger than that in the long run.”

“That’s enough to rescue this economy [for now]. We’re going to have to stimulate the economy later on,” said Clyburn. “And I think we’ll hear from the president in [his address to a joint session of Congress], what he proposes to stimulate the economy.” If Democrats succeed in getting the package approved, Americans can expect even more stimulus during Biden’s presidency, he said.

Claim it on your tax returns. Will the $1400 be the same deal? On next year's returns?

Put people to work, stimulate the economy, rebuild our crumbling infrastructure while updating for a more green future.
Give people a positive goal and image of a unified country.

Does anyone know if we’ll be able to change our banking info? Otherwise I will be waiting for a check again. I don’t have to do taxes since I got my second stimulus. My mom with a Feb 5 date is still waiting, however.
