Why July 2 Is a Key Date to Watch if You're Hoping for a Second Stimulus Check

If you're hoping for another COVID-19 stimulus payment from the federal government, you aren't alone. The first check did little to help most families. Many have already spent it entirely on necessities, with nothing left over to see them through the 2020 recession.

Unfortunately, it's anyone's guess what lawmakers will do next. There are multiple competing proposals out there for more novel coronavirus payments. There are grounds to hope for another payment, but also reasonable doubts about whether one is forthcoming.

The good news is that there's a date when we'll have a better idea of the answer to the will-they-or-won't-they question: July 2.
