Married couples making less than $120k get $4k/month and $2k/month for each kid up to three kids until 3 months after the WHO declares COVID is no longer a national emergency

I can't see that passing at all. Places are starting to open up big time this week.

So if I have 3 kids and make 115k I get 10k/month.

If I have the same family but make 125k I get squat?

Is this the same bill that they are trying to have mail in voting approved as well as same day registrations?

Either way it won't pass, but if these clauses are in them there is no way it gets through the Senate.

many jobs are not coming back anytime soon, if not, for good.

i think it passes, not as written, but i think a $2k package will be given to each adult regardless of income

So does this mean the stimulus package will last forever? Why would the WHO say we are no longer in a National Emergency?

Incorrect. The language states that married couples with $200k or less AGI get $4K a month.

A 1 time 2k payment or 2k a month?

No fricking way the Senate passes or Trump signs 2k a month. Talk about imploding the economy and people sitting at home for the next 6-12 months.

What if one was making well over 120k before this whole thing started. Now this person is making well under this amount, do they get nothing? Meanwhile someone who was making next to nothing, gets a huge pay raise and will get paid more money than they have ever made their whole life, all while doing nothing. Not too mention irresponsible people who have children just to collect more government money through social programs, are going to be greatly rewarded for their actions.

Zero chance in its current form.

However, I do see a Phase 4 with a payroll tax cut and some kind of additional stimulus payment.

The 2K/person/month bill will not pass the Senate. It might pass the house, and that's a stretch.

I do think we will see additional stimulus package(s), but this isn't it.
