True, does have extended unemployment so that helps.
Does anyone know what's in the proposed funding for schools/education? Don't think it's raises but maybe more ipads etc. for remote learning?
COVID-19 stimulus: Trump holds back on $908 billion compromise deal - Business Insider
Quote:
The two bills have some key differences:
The $908 billion stimulus package proposes support for small businesses, state and local governments, and schools, as well as funding for unemployment insurance, healthcare, and distribution of a COVID-19 vaccine.
McConnell's package is said to omit federal unemployment benefits but has provisions for education funding, small-business aid, and pandemic-related liability protections for businesses.
Neither bill includes another round of $1,200 checks, a popular measure from the pandemic stimulus law enacted in the spring.
