Here’s What’s In The Latest Coronavirus Relief Bill

Congress is working on a second major coronavirus relief bill that would include direct payments to Americans.

Here’s what’s included in the latest Senate proposal:

-The $1 trillion package includes another round of checks similar to the ones sent out in April – $1,200 for individuals, $2,400 for couples, and an extra $500 for each dependent.

-The $600-per-week federal unemployment benefits that expire this week would be cut to $200 per week.

-The bill also includes tax credits and more PPP loans for small businesses and restaurants.
