The signing will come hours before the Democratic president gives a prime-time speech marking the one-year anniversary of the coronavirus pandemic lockdown. Biden initially said he would sign the legislation on Friday.

Ridiculous photograph...again
I will give good odds that Joe Biden is not the president of the United States by the end of 2021.  Anyone?
Just a puppet place is made for kamala harris
Maybe true, and trump will be locked up.
keep machine out that ever expanding credit line credit card there Joe Nancy and Janet.. your 0% teaser rate is about ready to expire..
Barbaric Vultures posing as politicians..
And immediately after signing, they will start discussing passing a new, bigger stimulus. Watch. It will happen. Our children and grandchildren will cur/se our names.
Will Joe be taking questions after the speech? 😭
kudos to whoever took the beautiful picture,the background makes the president look enlightened.
Prepare for stagflation
We will base our decisions on who we elect based on the welfare checks they promise. This government is run like a banana republic.
JJ: By "We" , you mean "you".
What a sham! 90% non Covid PORK!! Give away give away give away horrible!!!
 what does one have to do with the other. Work on your logic. The stimulus bill is either a good idea or it's not a good idea.  has nothing to do with the wether "Trump did it too" are you in third grade?
 Why should I turn down getting $600 or $1400 of my tax money back when far more of it went to foreign nations or other programs that have nothing to do with COVID? Apparently, you are suggesting we should be happy we are $28 trillion dollars in debt while our government elected to serve us instead gives money away to foreign nations and makes us pay for it.
 At least you called me a Yankee. Thanks. I even call myself that and see it as a compliment. Just so you know, the U.S. is a powerhouse for grain exports, beef exports, pork exports... next time you eat some popcorn, think of me. My state is a popcorn powerhouse exporter, along with feed corn, beef, lumber, limestone, coal, pork and soybeans. Yes, we earned the stimulus - because our government shut down our economies and wrecked us financially... it's not our fault our own government racks up debt when we elect them to get our deficit under control. My state almost always has a surplus, because we  elect leaders that know how to balance a budget.
