3 Reasons Americans May Have to Give Up on a Second Stimulus Check
Millions of Americans have lost their jobs in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, while countless more are grappling with income insecurity. Thankfully, the CARES Act has already provided relief in the form of $1,200 stimulus payments, the bulk of which has gone out in the past few months. But many Americans feel that a single stimulus check wasn't enough and are itching to get their hands on additional cash to pay bills and tackle non-negotiable expenses.
Unfortunately though, efforts to get that money into Americans' hands have thus far been unsuccessful. The Democrat-proposed HEROES Act, which calls for additional stimulus cash, is currently stalled in the Senate, and considering that Republican lawmakers have been vocal in their opposition to it, it's unlikely to get voted in. Of course, that's just one proposal that's out there, and while it's possible that we'll see another relief package introduced in the coming weeks, here are three reasons why a second stimulus check may not be a part of it.
