Dear John,
Yesterday, I voted to pass the American Rescue Plan Act, which will deliver life-saving COVID-19 assistance to millions of Americans. This legislative package – a roadmap for future federal relief efforts – has now been signed into law by President Biden.
This historic bill will help uplift millions of Americans and includes:
- $1,400 stimulus checks
- A guaranteed monthly child payment worth $3,000 per year and $3,600 per year for children under the age of six
- $20 billion for COVID-19 vaccine administration
- $27.5 billion for emergency rental assistance
- $7.25 billion for Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) funding
- An extension of $300/week federal unemployment benefits and more
The American Rescue Plan Act also includes my bill to make any future student loan debt forgiveness tax-free. Click here to read more about my efforts to ensure working Americans aren't penalized for any potential government relief.
