WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A majority of the Democratic-controlled U.S. House of Representatives on Monday voted to pass a $900 billion coronavirus aid bill, which is attached to federal agency spending needed to avert a government shutdown at midnight when existing money expires.

this stimulus package should have been put out prior to the election *** Nancy pelosi
but then again after we give the money lets take it back when they file taxes.... its not free money. its a loan... dont get it twisted. It helps a little now but come tax season when your expecting that 2400 or 5000 return and your roughly 2300 short. dont go crying about trump. cause this man said of he was re elected he was going to forgive that money which means you wouldnt have to pay it back.

It's about time. I thought America shod have been the first to do that.
What does this mean for the markets?
means good for short term and death later
buy (good) bank stocks. All of it, 100% of the aide, will flow through them as soon as checks hit recipients. think along those lines, and other, 2nd & 3rd tier considerations.

nice
Nancy ***** up and she herself and others 130000 and us american people 600 . Revolution time
the reason this always goes down to the last minute is so everyone can jam in their junk programs and nobody has time to read it all.
the house passed a bill in may, and now Republicans try to take credit for it all because of their lunch tax right off.
It’s too bad all the Biden voters make far too much to receive the next stimulus check. But I’m glad the Trumpers will benefit. The $600 should keep them away from more food stamps for awhile and it will pay their rent for a few weeks. ENJOY!
yeah it won't get any. but I'll be doing the three martini lunches every other day.
I'm sorry you can't currently afford food stamps Thum. Hope the $600 helps you.
Its going to get stopped in its tracks in the final hours of the Government being open. Shut down stuck Government will be the way Biden gets to start his Presidency
shouldn't pay Congress for nine months ..
Thats a great idea. No pay and no Benefits until September 2021. Make them actually work for a change.
