Like, just, here is $250 dollars? A one time deal?

They should give it to grocery store workers who havent stopped the entire time either.

$350 seems more appropriate.

It's going to be first come first service till they run out of the 50 mil. That's only 200000 workers, 50k income limit. Should go to min wage workers first

It includes grocery store workers
Lawmakers said the bill would offer aid to grocery store workers, nurses, janitors, nursing home employees, bus drivers, EMS workers, fire and rescue employees, sanitation workers and others who risked their health to keep businesses operating during Louisiana’s stay-at-home order.

They should make sure all of the Lowe's and Home Depot employees get paid, after all they made sure that all the people that were supposed to stay at home had a place to go everyday.

How is a one-time payment of $250 dollars going to substantively help anyone going forward?
Are they going to do this again next week?

Incorrect. Losing your job means you got zero, and unemployment fills some of that gap. Healthcare workers were paid, including overtime, for the work they did. I have close to a dozen friends in clinical care and hospital settings and not a single one of them feel this “hero” badge is appropriate. None. They chose the field, and live to care for others.
