What a terrible bill all this is $$$$$$for union leaders and graft for all democratic leaders does nothing for road and bridges what a farce typical democratic bullshit
cooperhefner Sen. Schumer was so thrilled, it tickled me. 😁
'WHERE'S THE LOOT!,I HAVE NOT GOT MY STIMULUS CHECK YET, AND IT IS MONDAY MARCH 15,2021!!!,STILL WAITING!!!'
President Biden singed the 1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package. It’s not lot of money to cover for household items for people who lost their jobs because of the coronavirus pandemic, but it’s still something good. MAVORG
So, are we going to KEEP GETTING checks, or until we have to bitch we need more help?
POTUS plz maybe invest some $ in the IRSnews as I still am waiting on processing of 2019 taxes so did not receive last stimulus so, likely will not receive this one🙏🙏🙏

Let’s just keep printing money and giving it away. I’m sure it will all work out ...
We’re going down the toilet
'Mommy' Governors (male or female), shut down the Common Man!
The Education Establishment Gets Billions! Green People Get Billions. Common Man gets $1400 and Thanks God. I know Big Insurance thanks Their God. The Tesla Guy puts Bitcoin on his Electronic Altar and Hums.
Small, 'Progressive' Capitalists look for ways to grab Scraps off the Establishment Table, be they Military, or Healthcare, or Favored 'Green Boys' who receive hundreds of Millions of Dollars. Your 'Social Demands' WILL mean NOTHING!
The first Hundred days is to Swing Things so that the New Estabalishment can get its Fair Share of Taxpayer Riches. Republicans Don't Apologize for Raping the Taxpayer. Democrats Mask It in Pseudo Populist Praise of their own establishment. Small Capitalists look for Scraps.
Idiots
How is it a victory for Biden when he doesn't even understand what is in it? His dementia is getting worse, it is so bad they won't even let him answer questions from reporters! It won't be long before nancy and her cronies call on the 25th to remove him.
Explain this fucking bullshit.
Hell ya
Yea
The picture makes me chuckle 😂
They will never starve with all that pork
Schumer and Pelosi are American thieves within our own government. $1.9 Trillion bill equates to $5700/per person but only $1200/per person provided? Dems are stealing your tax dollars for their special interests. Impeach them both...
How Israelis in China are Coping with Coronavirus! via YouTube
How is it a victory if the bill has to go back to House for approval of Senate amendments? It has not yet been signed into law. That will be the victory.
You’re getting $1400, but a $1.9T relief bill divided by 330M Americans is costing you $5757.
What a joke. Our country is a literal joke.
Vote JoeBiden out ASAP he’s taxing the poor to pay the stimulus back
Forgot to mention sleepy joe JoeBiden is taxing the poor to offset the stimulus package 📦 🤦🏾 time to vote joe out nowwww DonaldJTrumpJr
That's one hell of a money tree..
The phaseout is the only unfair part of the plan. And it is very very unfair. A family of 6 -agi of 150k gets an $8,400 stimulus but that same family- agi of 160k gets no stimulus. In other words you can pay more than 100% effective tax rate on income above 150k.
The Senate just passed the BIDEN relief plan. 10% for Covid19 help. 90% relief for Biden from the cackle of poliwhores he hears daily.
Yay🎊🎉🎊🎉🎈💃🏻💃🏻
I wonder how many trump supporters will not take the checks since according to them Biden isn't the president, and if he's not the president then there was no bill. So therefore, they shouldn't get shit!
It’s great news for all of us. Many people lost jobs and can’t afford monthly rent due to COVID-19 pandemic. It’s not a lot, but it’s still something and they deserve it. mavorg
Now if they can find time to pass that Emmett-Till Anti-Lynching Law!
How delightful; and all at the expense of the children!
This is taking way too long. There’s still another vote wtf?
Are they going to police the people that are getting the unemployment i know there are some people that spend most nights in the bar drinking and doing drugs shouldn't they be looking for work and showing proof
thank you, sir Biden, now BITCOIN goes to the moon 🚀🌕
And a vitory for Bitcoin owners :)
PEOPLE ARE TRULY TIRED, TIRED..and this was a MIRACLE...💯💯💯🙏🏽♥️..and the DEMOCRATS AINT PLAYIN...because.. IT'S TIME FOR CHANGES..‼️..PERIOD‼️✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
I wonder if Biden's kid will get his cut? No pun intended, or was there?
Thank God! Now please mail the checks or deposit the direct deposits.
Why do they keep calling it the $1.9 trillion bill when it has been gutted left and right? What’s the REAL final price tag?
It was the democratic senate that passed the bill cause the republicans did not vote for a single thing. Maybe their poor widows and other family members should not be granted cause their party are not for the bill.
The Senate approved the $1.9 trillion covid relief plan, which will provide America with its 3rd round of stimulus checks. eng112news
And another rip off to the tax payers.
How does NPR as a journalist organization declare this a victory for Biden? These are table scraps v. Other poorer countries and the minimum wage isn’t increased a penny.
God help us
The Senate approved the $1.9 trillion covid relief plan, which will provide America with its 3rd round of stimulus checks. eng112news

Even after passing this glut, the Democrats will be back saying they don't have enough funds and the communities they control will still be impoverished from bad policies. VoteThemOut
With the amendments to reduce unemployment benefits and with a reduced eligibility limit for the $1400, will the bill now cost less than $1.9T?
Like I said there’s no victory lap here we are American we work hard for a tax dollars they should not give our money away to different entities or countries last time I checked I don’t owe money to other countries
If Mr. Biden holds money to other countries it should not come out of our stimulus check it should come out of his pocket there’s no victory here he’s giving our hard-working money to other countries we are taxpayers of America

meganhswanson Correct your headline: DEMOCRATS approved Biden’s plan. Every Republican voted against it. VoteAccordingly
Ahem. This is NOT a $1.9 trillion Covid19 relief Bill. Tell it as it really is - a $500b Covid19 relief Bill, and even then some payments are to be spread over several years. This is effectively a bail out for Democrat States Bill. Stop spreading fake news.
Biden Dems priorities were all on the table during election, non to benefit the lower and middle class, but as ive said before 80% of anericans are morons and 100% vote their emotions or at least what they have been told are their emotions
Stop calling it a Covid relief bill. Most of it is pork!!
Got Ya....
The only thing Biden has done is sit in his little hidy, hole and say I did it again. He the worst of the worst.
No is not, we trust him and still they don’t care about the immigrants who pay taxes and and work as essential Workers, and their CITIZENS KIDS, this kids deserve the same as other US Kids, Democrats, republicans same thing 🥺🥺🥺
I won't believe it till we actually see some checks
They got smarter now they send thier armies across the border in smaller groups then they team up on this side of the border and await further instructions

“Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., on Tuesday accused the Biden administration of trying to 'jam' Republicans on the legislation.” The king of jamming is mad boofrigginhoo
How much goes to blacks? Not counting socialist payouts. Stock market jump for the summer even though it’s not needed. Democrats manipulating the economy and it will end badly. Then the left will say, See trickle down Trump failed. And the scams just keep on coming
Hm $1400 that won’t even cover gasoline hiked prices! The Gov will give $1400 to the ppl & later is going 2take back TRILLIONs fro the ppl! Isn’t their real true GOAL to bankrupt 🇺🇸 & take us n2 a 1 WORLD GOV & new currency. Y? Cause We’ve turned R backs on GODs & HIS ways!😓
The Capital System is. Failed System wake up
Goes to show based from some of the comments here, people either read/watch their own parties' opinion only or only read the headlines but the entire article. If you're one of those, you're going to be forever upset no matter who's in charge.
The IRS will not pay the money out if your information you give them is exact. Poor people move and forget certain information. Who is going to help me?
Why does the IRS not want to give us even the last stimulus? My back rent is over $5,000. They lie to me.
Bump him ☔️💥 upcoming
The people who needed most are denied. I didn't get mine or my kids mom. The IRS won't even talk to us. It takes hours to even get through only for them to not do their job. Their job is to brush people off.
what you should pass is the IRS making it so hard to get the money. They are like Nazis. I call them, wait hours only for them to say they can't talk to me. They refuse to send me my transcripts to my new address.
Just like that steal another 1.9 trillion this is crazy how much you wanna bet no Nobody but Mr global is going to benefit from this.
:)
It’s not a ‘victory’ they control the freaking government and pass whatever tf they want. It’s also full of corrupt pork barrel nonsense just like the other two garbage bills
We have to go through the IRS to get the money and they make it hard. They won't even talk to you if you don't provide exact information that no one is going to remember. Can't even see them in person. No appointments.
I am still waiting for the last stimulus check and others too that I know. The IRS ignores us.
This is a horrible bill. Tax increases are inevitable. Businesses will shut down. Unemployment will rise. Giving way to even more socialist government. Soon we will have 2 classes of people in the US. THE RICH and very poor. Welcome to Venezuela.
wow now I can pay one month of bills....thanks. keEP Up tHe GoOd WorK!!!
That’s a fat pork filled Bill.
Congratulations, that we now have 22 trillion nation debts
🥱
And america goes to china
Yo Mr JoeBiden Where the HELL IS THE 2000 THOUSAND DOLLAR Thats you gonna send it, Come On Old man Do your damn job As President
Well done Beijing Joe, wonder where the money will come from? Bit of a clue here
The JoeBiden China crime family has major Announcements about Selling American to China 🇨🇳
Republicans have once again made me glad I no longer support them after what they did and once again they have shown their hatred for the American citizens. Never a Republican again!!!!!
Way to go, Dems.
Wait. What?
He forgets and we all live in fear.
VIVAAAA BIDEN!!!!
Retrumplicans all voted against it. They had nothing to do with passing the bill. Remember that America in 2022 and 2024!
I agree with AOC on this one. Trump did a better job reaching more Americans with the past stimulus payments. The new guidelines on stimulus payments will hurt Americans supporting family members.
The future is now. May God have mercy on U.S.
Where is 'Urgently Required (USA+World) Elderly Senior Citizen Spending Power Program To (Rescue+Rehabilitate+Care+Utilise) Highly (Matured+Work Experienced) Elderly Senior Potential World Citizens of Highly Creative Ages Of (55 to 87) Years With New (Job/Unemployment Progran)'?
Just wire them check already
Also, (not saying it will happen) but if I have to 'pay for it in the long run' for getting help to eat and pay bills when things are rough. Ummmmm. Ok? If paying it back in the future when things are more stable ensures that I survive the present hardships, what's the issue?
Republicans raved over Trump calling for $2000 Stimulus checks end of last year, but wanna bash the Democrats for passing a new pkg.
Another disgusting perversion of the COVID. Loans n loan forgiveness for minority farms?(lawsuit to come)museums?more subsidies for Obamacare?n more for schools that haven’t used 100’s of billion from earlier political largesse. Yet they still refuse to open
Great
And Republicans in Congress turned on their constituents just like Trump turned on them. When Americans needed them...they walked away. When Americans needed them... they supported the insurrection. When cold, sick, starving, and scared Americans needed them... they voted NO!
Much needed help for the American people 🙏 yes!
The people need help what the democrats do is put in stuff that has nothing to do with covid relief. That is whats wrong with every package they have passed so far. The only one that mattered was the first ones stimulus package back in April. The rest have been for big businesses
Wish it was as good as they make it sound. It’s full of pork
Ok but if all 330,000,000(million) American Citizens get $1,400 (and we are not) that accounts for $462,000,000,000(billion). What the hell is the other $1,438,000,000,000(trillion) for?
Republicans give a damn about u 🤦🏻♀️
Biden is already proving he wants to be a lame duck president.
Biden promised $2k checks day one, day one. We got $1400 check over two months later. Why did it take so long? He was busy telling student debt victims to eat shit, commenting on the infallibility if the parlamentarian and working with Republicans who only operate in bad faith
Hardly a victory. This is why people don't respect NPR. You are completely tone-deaf to the reality that working class americans got shafted by this administration once a week since it started. The minimum wage being removed is just this week's failure.
Good
1.9 trillion tweets of infighting, by the divided states of American idiots incoming. Zero fear of hyperinflation because the US can endlessly print money for anything they want, and rig economies. Hell by more stealth bombers this year too. Why the hell not?
There’re lots of opportunities across the world to make life a better and comfortable place to live in. I’ve earned up to $28,000 in the past 2 weeks, investing in BITCOIN and FOREX Trading with I really can’t thank you enough. I’ll keep doing my best.
When you follow God first he will always see you through God is your protector with all your good work you put forth before him there as been great relief of evil cooling down in the air I sense lately thank you 🙏🏼 Mr President 👑
Good job
💕💕
Nothing could ever get passed except huge tax cuts 4 rich under GOP. Amazing DEMS got this vital bill passed. Congrats to DEMS, all who worked hard for this, including the voters who contacted Reps. The ACA provisions alone in this bill are profoundly helpful and well-crafted. 💙

This is how Biden/Harris/Corp Dems want to make Progressives cave to the Sen bill w/o $15 min. Biden coming out b/f House votes on the bill to announce as if it's a lock to pass the house. Well let it be clear Progressive should not cave to this bill. You get power by fighting.
Give SenateDems the credit they deserve, because Republicans voted to NOT help the American people!!

This is an overwhelming failure not a victory. The Democrats have just proved they can be just as shitty as Republicans—oh wait they were duopoly to begin with😏 $15 a barrel minimum in this day and age refused...stimulus throughout the crisis? MSM has a low bar for “victory.”
Biden/Harris/Corp Dems think that the Progressives will cave & vote for the Sen bill w/o the $15 min in the bill.But if they want to put their vote where their mouth is then Progressives vote down the bill & announce it b/f it even comes to the house. Vote the must pass bill down
Wasn’t this the same relief funds that President Trump tried to place in hurting Americans hands? Demoncrats wanted to give other countries billions of Americans hard earned tax dollars to foreign countries! Trump refused to allow Americans to be ripped off by Demoncrats!
cooperhefner Thank you Jesus!
You’re getting $1400, but a $1.9T relief bill divided by 330M Americans is costing you $5757.
Come On, Joe Manchin. Reshape the Democratic Party! Joe Biden Can't.
Democrats are busy passing covid relief bill for struggling Americans while the Republicans are reading Dr. Seuss.
Hope that money goes to public schools and the people in need.
I so love my POTUS❣️
And no Republicans voted for it because they just don’t care about you or me. We are not rich or corporate sponsors.
This is the happiest day of senate proceedings since December 24, 2009, when the senate passed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
1.9 trillion tweets incoming of infighting, by the divided states of American idiots incoming. Zero fear of hyperinflation because the US can endlessly print money for anything they want, and rig economies. Hell by more stealth bombers this year too. Why the hell not?
Thank you president Biden and to all the Democract senators and congressmen who helped our president to pass the covid relief plan thank all of you for caring for the american people
$7.25 at a time!
We believe that the President Biden do the best thing for the American people not for the COVID-19,all including.
Wow
This as not a relief bill. All the extra money that goes to who knows where? Does no one care anymore about being raped by politicians Stand up for the constitution, they are not our rulers!!
So why are retired people and others like me getting stimulus money when we were not affected by the pandemic?
That’s nice but the irs is saying 10 weeks for returns to be processed Bc of “errors” so not sure how they’re supposed to handle these new payments. People are suffering and IRSnews doesn’t bother to respond. wheresmyrefund 2020TaxRefundScrewUp
U call 9% of $1.9T a victory? I call that a scam.
Red wave is coming. American's will not tolerate you Joe.
Time to sock it away in savings and pay off some credit card debt...
I’ll bet anyone not making $80K, that is tweeting against this stimulus, will happily take the money! But, if you truly think the passage of this stimulus is so wrong-I suggest you return the check back to the IRS...and pay for any Covid vaccine or care that you receive. Simple!
“A legislative victory for the Biden administration.” What opinionated reporting...something you would have never seen stated on the trump administration!
Finally a president who gets things done for the average American. Shame on the Republicans for not supporting this very popular and needed bill. Sit back Republicans and go read your Dr. Seuss while Democrats work for the American people.
And just like that, the Dems lost 2022 and 2024.
Oh yeah, show of hands. How many republicans will be sending their $1400 check back to the government since it’s just reckless spending
Oh thats a good idea
Manchin is a STUD! From a State who Dared to house heroes During the Civil War! Run for President, Joe. You are willing to have an Independent Mind!
Manchin is a STUD! From a State who Dared to heroes During the Civil War! Run for President, Joe. You are willing to have an Independent Mind!
What percent goes to anything COVID related?
Great to hear that Manchin held his ground! That's a TRUE Democrat! He understands that help of the Little democrat is absolutely Necessary, but wasting too much money without cutting elsewhere only plays into.the future hands of the Predator Fascist. Thank you, Joe!
Sick of R’s disdain for the not so rich and the 2 Dem Senators holding remaining Dems hostage. What the hell is wrong with Dems? They've got majority for maybe only 2yrs. Let's get busy!
Assholes! All Assholes!
Let’s be clear, it was the SenateDems who passed the Bill, NOT SenateGOP. Republicans do not care about their constituents. It’s a partisan game for them, and it’s clear every single day by their vile and hypocritical actions.
Spend and print money. Any idiot can do that. These people are fools.
Still nothing for collage students tho

What about congress?
For the second time they voted on this.
JUST IN: ' the math doesn't add up'
It’s the liberal bullshit wishlist
Send me my money 💰😂🤣😂😂
9% of the money for bogus China Virus relief & the rest to their political cronies.
Good start
$1.9trillion passed Senate by Democrats; no Republicans. Goes to Congress on Tuesday! 9% goes for Covid (Americans stimulus portion); remainder is Pelosi’s pet projects! Massive debt for our children!
$300 what happen to $600, and $400
No thanks to any Senate Republicans They'll go to hell and back to push the Lie and obstruct or kiss the ring at Mar-a-lago But they couldn't muster up enough compassion or responsibility to care about the citizens of the state they represent with a Yes vote. Shame on all of you
With zero Republican vote yet the states represented by republicans will benefit from this relief package...
‼️‼️SENATE DEMOCRATS APPROVE BIDENS RELIEF PLAN‼️‼️...... Fixed it for you.
😂 what victory?Wasn’t it their own WH press secretary when asked shouldn’t u give credit to trump for warp speed w/ vaccine?She said no1 get credit from anything with covid when 500k people died. Biden can’t even answer ? Without permission from handlers. He’s a joke like NPR is
Are you delusional? NPR doing their best like other neoliberal media to lie with every breath. The working class got screwed once again. No minimum wage increase. No $2000 as promised, and a cut on unemployment amounts from the previous admin.
No republicans voted for this. They are dead as a party.
America is for the rich and white. We are a theater audience for them. Even when we suffer
ArnavSarkar15 Great gimme my fucking $
A victory? We are a one party system now. What a joke.
The revised bill now goes to the House for consideration. Here are the big provisions: - $1,400 direct checks - extended UI benefits at $300/week through Sept. 6 - $350 billion for cities, states, and tribes - $170 billion for schools - $100 billion for public health
Only 9 percent of this money will be spent this year, with the majority to be spent in 2024. Not for the people. Be transparent please. God Help America
Great work!!! President Biden& Jill& vice President is going to make America Great again!!! God bless Pelosi& Schumer& the House& Senate!!!
Victory for the politicians crumbs for the people
We appreciate direct payments in plan at $1,400 which individuals & families can use to pay rent, utilities & mortgages, food supplies, PPE & household goods, 'place down payment on a vehicle', or pay insurance and other essentials (e.g., funerals, health copays, medicines).
Chân thành, chín chắn, biết ân cần và tôn trọng.

Man Trump Qaeda is out in full force tonight GQPTraitorsToDemocracy TrumpQaeda
Now we can wait 3 more weeks while they twiddle their thumbs instead of just getting it finalized lol
Shouldn't NPR report that 90% of the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief plan has nothing to do with coronavirus relief and shouldn't NPR also report that not even ONE Republican voted for relief plan? I used to trust NPR reporting, but not anymore.
And it’s headed back to the house. You forgot that part...
I need a stimulus check my bills and partly handicap
And securing with it a whole list of gifts to themselves.
Excellent excellent
Democrats vote to hand out $1,400 bribes to nearly every taxpayer in the country.
I'm going to vote blue my entire life. At the tough time its clear who is in the side of me and my family and who is in the side of corporates and racists.
Hahahahaha victory
Now that’s a good president one who sticks with his promises an to his word just please me Biden drop gas prices killing us middle class an poor has no chance
Any Legislation, of any type at any time, should not be labeled as a victory for legislators nor politicians, only a victory for the people.
$1.8999999 Trillion upward transfer to the Rich... again. 5 trillion uploaded March 2020. $.000876 cents to the American people. That seems fair. med4all
So, what's next? Seems things 'pass' and nothing ever happens. Is this the last hurdle before folks get their money back?
Nice things
Oh yeah, oh yes baby..ouu. OOOU OH YESSSSS

That was so easy even the senators in Congress could do it. I hope calling cavemen senators is not offensive to cavemen. sarcasm What do senators and neanderthals have in common? They both should be extinct. Congrats on doing your job I guess.
Hilarious that Biden is taking credit for getting money to people. Didn't Trump send out money.
And a loss for the Middle Class... who will have to repay China CCP.
Fortunately some will be directed to vaccine distribution. We need to make sure that vaccines will be available for anybody who needs it, and is willing to take it.
What a relief!
1.9 trillion dollar wealth transfer from hard working middle class Americans to the poor and illegal is all it is.
Accurate reporting except for: - 'President Biden' - 'coronavirus relief plan' - 'legislative victory for the Biden administration' - omission of 'additional aid' for anti-American radicals

It's good for the US to get this approved It's been a terrible time for so many people
No....
The Senate did not do this. The Democratic Party did this. The Republicans did literally everything they could to stop providing needed help to millions. DestroyTheGOP
What a shame. Money we don't have. Get people back to work. This has made it difficult for employers to hire as people will now make more on unemployment. By the way how about those gas prices!! Told you so.
WHAT THE REPUBLICANS ARE NOT LOOKING TO HELP THE OUT OF BUSINESSES, WORKERS ON UNEMPLOYMENT, STATE GOVERNMENTS THAT ARE IN BILLIONS OF DEBT, THAT FUND CITIES POLICE, FIREFIGHTERS, SCHOOLS, EMT'S, MEDICAL HOSPITALS, INFRASTRUCTURE....😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Open up the economy. But I see people prefer to be dependent on handouts. Don't celebrate much people. We all got screwed. Trump wanted us to get 2k$ But Pedo Jo backtracked and gave 14k$
Federal unemployment benefits will be extended through Sept. 6 at the current rate of $300 per week and the first $10,200 of those benefits would be tax-free for households that earn $150,000 or less.
Ok but when do we actually get it? Can they pretend it’s impeachment documents and move faster?
Waiting on the government before you eat a bread is a total waste of time.the bitcoin market is currently experiencing a bull run and a lot of newbies see this as a chance to get in on the action, I think I'll let others hold the bag ..Dm Mrs Evelyn (470) 220‑7946 to get started
This just in. GOP doesn’t care about struggling Americans
Amen! Now if I could just get someone to give one of the hundreds of jobs I've applied for since Trump let Covid-19 run loose on us... 🙄
I'm not calling that a victory, but okay...
Shame on NPR for showing political bias. The government has never given the people anything they didn't take from the public first.
What I found most disrespectful is the low amount of relief for veterans..... While the politicians are safe and being paid the veterans are homeless , starving, sick , or have fallen to drug use. I need a further breakdown of the 'other' 45 b. How do veterans only get 17billion?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Riiiiiight. Now, how much of that will end up in the pockets of those that got Biden in office? In one form or another. THIS much money, oh yeah, a lot of undeserving people are going to do very well!!
Not really a victory when I’m gonna be getting taxed for it
wears your mask obama soros jr.
How is this a victory? It's $400 less than what was passed under Trump, applied to 17 million less people, and $600 less than the $2000 he promised in Georgia. Plus, he put no effort at negotiating and applying pressure for the $15 min wage that he pledged during the campaign.
Still not finished. Now it has to go to the House. Stimulus check is coming to the people once they are all starved and even further in debt that a stimulus check won't help much with rent / mortgages as they are months behind waiting for it.
“JUST IN: The DEMOCRATIC SIDE OF THE Senate approved President Biden's $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief plan Saturday, securing additional aid for American families, workers and businesses...” There, fixed it... AmericanRescuePlan DemocratsCareAboutUs RepublicansDontCare
Good
Horrible.🐖🐖🐖🐖🐷
TBRaysTwins And what else?
The direct Payments should be $14,000 NOT $1,400 .
So when do I expect my check for 2k? Is it before or after the 112 million dollar Silicon Valley railway project or the billion dollars for Amtrak which hasn't spent the billion we gave them?
Amen for a SANE president!
Not truly covid relief..only 10% related.
Negotiations and comprise this how the framers of the constitution want our government to work Knowing that you can never make everyone happy but you need to progress for the good of the country
Thank you Democrats! Fuck you, Republicans. I used to respect and look up to you.
JoeBiden so middle class families weren’t impacted? How are you going to draw a line and say people above this income don’t need help? We have bills too.
This is what politicians are saying, when was the last time you could believe a politician? What they are doing is spending your money that will have to be paid back at some point.
Thank you to the Democratic Party for passing this desperately needed $1.9T Covid bill! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Oh for fcuk sake. NO! The fcuking SENATE did NOT approve the American Rescue Plan. The FCUKING GQP did everything in what's left of their miserable power to tank it & fcuk over their got dam constituents. ONLY the Dems in the Senate approved the plan for WeThePeople ALL of them.
Did you ever dine in your life, with somone who ponders and asks every possible question about the menu, the prices, the portions? They end up ordering what your ordering decided 50 plus 1 minutes ago. Insult to injury, they then ask you? 'Are we going Dutch?'
Just in: Democrats use the Federal Government to bail out Union Pensions and Democrat run cities by soaking your grandchildren
Yeah but if you owe back taxes they will take your money This time around they took mine
Congratulations! Mr. POTUS POTUS! Mr. Schumer SenSchumer Thx for your hard work! Thank you to all D Senators! Especially, Sen_JoeManchin & kyrstensinema for voting with D. R Senators know that because of numbers, they just need one D senator to stop us from moving forward.
Thank God!!
This is not a deal for the American people
Excellent!
If he had the guts he would have had a press conference in answering real questions to the bill He knew the public would not go for what he had in mind to all the huge bill His transpency line before the election lies in the dustbin of promises
$1,900,000,000,000 isn’t big enough. Tack on a few more zeros. The more zeros the higher my bitcoin will 🚀
Today reminds me of May 4, '17. Ohhh... know NOT what I speak? That was day Trump held a WH celebration w/HOUSE GOP for passing a repeal of ObamaCare. Yeah... the bill that failed in the Senate. First, you PASS the law, then celebrate. A perfect metaphor for the Trump Idiocracy.
It is not enough.
DEMOCRATS approved. Republicans failed Americans. AGAIN.
Please journalists urge the POTUS KamalaHarris federalreserve jpmorgan to hire the nation and exchange work for Reliefbill . Please do not continue to send unemployment checks for doing nothing 😭😭! Pay for worthwhile and useful projects QuestTV Brojects.
Just let us know when you guys get shit done.
Don't give the Republicans credit - none of them voted for it. The correct headline is: DEMOCRATS in the Senate...
Why doesn’t this headline read “Democrats in the Senate approved President Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief plan on Saturday, securing additional aid for American families, workers and businesses”! Credit where credit is due.
I hope the relief bill doesn’t include the Emergency Federal Employee Leave Fund because they aren’t the only people that had to be on leave with their children. This is not fair and should be taken out of the bill or give it to all who had to stay home with their children.
How much would people celebrate this if they knew how much it would bankrupt the country for our kids? I’m getting a check I have no need for...countless others in same boat I’m sure. Dems just want to be seen as “doing something” rather than doing something wise.
Go back to sleep Joe, we'll wake you up when its finished...
Thank you President Biden and Democrats!! Job well done!!
Buy $LUNA
What about 14 doller minamue wadge.
Weak slow but deadly President
1.9 trillion divided by every american in the United States is approximately 6 thousand dollars, That's alot of money. But I'm only getting 1400.00? Well, I can't bitch, I pull in just under 80 grand a year so I still get the stimulus. But wheres the rest going to.
It’s sad NPR has become fake news by claiming this 1.9 trillion spending bill is a China virus relief plan when only a small fraction of the $$$ is going directly to virus relief. It’s disgusting.
Love U Pres Biden and all those who made this happen
Should go a long way to get rid of the $3 trillion deficit from 2020. I am betting we top $5 trillion for 2021. Yay winning!
Brrrrrrr
I wish I could be more excited about this today but the spotlight this process has given to remind us that such a razor thin majority of congress gives a single shit about the people living through this crisis makes it all feel very hollow
Infrastructure & immigration next. If the GOP continue in their loyalty to Trump & refuse to work with Dems, they have no shot at midterms.
And next week will hear that Republicans are fighting to slow it down!!!, stop stalling send Ppl their money!!!
Where's the $15 min. wage?!?!?! VP Harris or you could have overruled the parliamentarian...BUT YOU BOTH CHOOSE NOT TO!!! This is UNACCEPTABLE!!! The American people deserve better!!! What say ye?!?!?!
No. DEMOCRATS in Senate approve relief bill, DESPITE GOP indifference and obstacles.
This means nothing until the amended bill passes the House again. Judging from what I've read, it won't pass the House in its current form. Those in the House will want to raise the eligibility for the stimulus checks, thus ruining any chance of it passing by March 14.
5555academy this is what I was speaking of.
No thanks to the GQP
DEMOCRATS IN THE SENATE
Democrats did it in spite of Republicans!
$1.9T with only $200B in COVID relief. Lol big win.
Go BIDEN!!!
Can’t wait to see all the videos of Republicans putting their money where their mouth is by ripping up their $1,400 socialism checks on social media 🙄CovidReliefBill
Oh come one this man is not a hero Keep giving us money we will go broke the whole country Stop giving us money
But it still pays people that never lost their jobs and isn’t retroactive which would help us that have to spend our savings to stay alive. 🤬🤬
Biden - Harris equates Intelligence, compassion and integrity, so refreshing to have him for our POTUS and Vice POTUS! 💙💙
Senate Democrats. Be clear
Democrats in the Senate and House. The cruel and heartless Republicans all voted no.
It must feel really good to have a proper leader.
Let’s hope it’s the first of many.
This is a nice start to open the economy, increase vaccine distribution, keep schools open, help small business and the American
We belive in mr Biden thats why we voted for him
sherylunderwood Mr. President thank you Vice President 🙏 you
All the tax dollars Americans spend and 'they' give you $1400? That's fair? WELL THANKS A LOT! 😒
This should have been a quick and easy decision. What a shame that our underpaid hard working citizens, those providing the service WE ALL depend upon, are once again left behind. What a shame! Thankfully BernieSanders and others will not give up the fight!
A victory for 12 million less workers than the last stimulus.
Take that, Senator Ron Johnson! Oh, and f*** you!
Just printing money or stealing from the 3rd world,
A little too late for the ones who Lost their businesses and homes. Ha ha America first....
Be honest exactly how much is relief for WeThePeople sand how much of that$1.9 TRILLION is for DemocratsTheEnemyWithin
I hope Republican Senators realize this outcome is a direct result of losing both seats in Georgia which is a direct result of backing Trump as he propagated lies about election fraud which rallied Georgia Dems like never before. What comes around...
So we will be continuing to pay unemployed workers more than people currently employed working full-time on minimum wage? Vote down a raise to minimum wage and continue unemployment for an additional six months. Way to reward those 'Heroes'!
i can imagine you do what you want. business wise
Dancing a happy dance!
It’s a bacon sandwich with a pork soda chaser. Me and my community are done being bought off for our vote. You lost our vote when you lost all them jobs in your first 3 months. trump2024 to save the economy again 🙏🏿
The day when we stop referring to legislation to steer our country as a “loss” or “victory” for a particular party in this country is the day we might actually start moving forward.
Thank you for CARING about the American people!!! Though my family does not qualify for stimulus $$, I am thankful that the Democrats and JoeBiden POTUS are looking out for the best interests of ALL of us, including the very least of these! CovidReliefBill 💗😘
Pt2. I would also argue that the majority of you never actually read whats covered in the stimulus bill, and most of you wouldn't even care, because that's what happens when the government suppresses rights and liberties and economic status for a year, now going on its second.
Also approved giving murderers, rapists, child molesters ~ all felons ~ a stimulus check!!! Don't we already supply all of their needs Disgusting!!!
TY Dems, especially Georgia & StaceyAbrams Ossoff Warnock. Wouldn't have happened without U. Dems need 2 do this in other states in 2022 & keep Blue states blue. Help rest of America instead of GOP millionaires/billionaires as they've been helped 4 decades - 0 trickle down
Pt1. This will be no different than the last time. The exuberance lasted all of maybe two or three weeks, and then the money ran out, and there you were again not paying rent and all other utilities. And to what end? That's right, begging for yet another stimulus package.
Thank you
I’m glad something got passed even if I am not happy with feeling like it doesn’t do as much as it should.
Welfare state 😞

The Biden team hit the floor running. The people sent him there to help the ones suffering the most over this past year. Thank you, Sir.

Employed people don’t need relief!
*Senate Democrats
badkitty251 The Democratic Senate. Republicans voted against it.
A centrist analysis:
the government shouldn’t pat themselves on the back concerning stimulus, singles get screwed again, and ESSENTIAL WORKERS PAY is not in this package either! they should be ashamed! at least make it fair for everybody, $150,000 cap for everyone!
Only 9% of this $1.9 trillion is related to health care, and less than 1% of this $1.9T bill is related to vaccines.
Understanding the help for the money that comes in a relief package... but for real, that monthly money coming for the unemployment due to COVID, needs some improvement in how we track who really needs it, and how a search and intention of getting a job is!
Undaunted, President Biden works thru the night accomplishing what work must be done to serve the people.
POTUS working for the people Thank you
Should not be called a 'COVID relief bill', since only about a fifth of it is COVID relief. They only called it that so that it would pass.
“Victory” is doing a lot of legwork here
I would like to say thank you to our Democratic Senate for passing the economic relief package that is so crucial to so many of us. Once again the Republicans showed us just how much they about us, which is NOTHING!!
If they follow this math everyone gets paid
It's not a legislative victory for Biden. It's a legislative victory for thr United States. It's proof positive that the Senate still works, and our constitutional government can still force out the the bad. The radical and the reactionary in the form of compromise.
👎👎👎👎👎
Great now the people who still haven't received there refund will probably be pushed back even longer 😔
Thank you! This is for all the American people who are hurting in this time of COVID. We need to post all who DIDN’T vote for this and remember when it comes to voting them in again.
Way to go POTUS. Now convince your Party to throw out the filibuster! If you want to really help all Americans with your policy, this has to happen. You gave your best efforts trying to work with he Party of No. Realize the GOP is waiting to gain power in 2022 and end your work.
Thank you for the Biden Covid Relief Bill, Potus!
Great leadership always look after there nation-💖
Let’s hope all those Republican voters will remember who was responsible for saving their bacon when they cash those relief checks! And all the small businesses. The GOP only cares about mega-rich donors and large donating corporations. NOT AMERICA!
Before yall type let's vote out those who stalled and voted against this understand. Its ppl who are suffering will still vote them back in office because most rather die than knowing this helped more ppl. Stupid right? Its ppl out here like that
Taxation without representation. What does this covid bill have to do with covid? Why not millions going to small businesses /people lost their lively hoods. What about reparations for them? Instead we have Nancy and Chuck lining their pockets
'the first $10,200 of those benefits would be tax-free for households that earn $150,000 or less.' Why do none of these articles specify whether this is for 2020 or 2021 unemployment benefits BE SPECIFIC in your writing please!
So, if we lowered the number of people getting the StimulusCheck and lowered unemploymentbenefits from 400 to 300 what’s the new number? Because it’s not 1.9 trillion anymore. stimuluspackage stimulusbill numbers coronavirus AmericanRescuePlan
Was that still the number after the horse trading? Cut off a month of UE and $100/week...
❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Republican party need to very careful of what they are doing because they were become to loss supporters of their own party and the bill is very popular among So they need to think twice before they vote again it remember what they did with Obama and lose against
Let’s make sure that the money for businesses goes to those in need this time, not to the most wealthy and politically connected as happened under the GOP “relief plan”.
I'm so proud to have voted for Joe!
If the American Relief Bill is so popular with Americans why hasn't it garnered ANY Republican support and it's not them who are objecting to it's passage it's the MILLIONS of Americans they represent who object to it's passage but as far as team Pelosi is concerned their SOL
When the hell are we getting the $1400
What a forking joke!
1.9 trillion in Stimulus ÷ 158.5 million qualified people = $12,000/person. Where's the remaining $10,600?
THANK YOU GEORGIA
More handouts! Give the dems a little. Get there votes and keep them down!!!
Too bad the Senate did not have the Guts to GUT the Pork out of the 1.9T “Covid” Bill including SpeakerPelosi 100 million CA Rail Project and another 90% Non Covid. GUT the Pork and each American could have received 2K to 10K each. POTUS where’s the 2K you promised if elected.
'PLEASE!,THEN!,GIMME MY GODDAMNED STIMULUS CHECK!,NOW!,BEFORE I GET 'REALLY!!!,MAD!!!,I AM HUNGRY!!!'
Biden scaled back bill will come back and bit him, the people who won’t receive the 3rd stimulus will vote the other way in 2 years, he can thank his fellow dems for that
Like Obamacare was for Obama; perhaps 2022 will also be deja vu.
Get Bitcoin while it is still cheap.
Should not call this the “Covid Relief Bill” considering the majority of it has nothing to do with Covid Relief😳. Piling up the taxes on the American people.
These democrats voted against $15hr min wage Chris Coons Delaware Angus King Maine Joe Manchin West Virginia Tom Carper Delaware Jeanne Shaheen New Hampshire Jon Tester Montana Sen. Maggie Hassan New Hampshire Sen. Kyrsten Sinema Arizona
Thank you, SenateDems for passing the AmericanRescuePlan to protect the American people during this pandemic. SenateGOP, get it together. Trying to regain power by prolonging the crisis to make things worse is way wrong.
If the COVID-19 bill is supposed to be about financial relief, why does most of the money go to a bridge and tunnels? Hypocrisy at its best.
Who really gets all that $$$$ The fat cat REITS, BANKS, CHINA, & PRIVILEGED MILLIONAIRES (Nancy, Clinton’s, Chuck, etc.) where poor & middle class Americans will spend all that “RELIEF!” SenateDems SenateGOP Tesla SenSchumer SpeakerPelosi
I hope people who worked through COVID non stop with minimum wage gets something good 😌 but I doubt it 😪
Yeah including the 140millions for the San jose BART that PELOSI sneak in that bill !!
Finally me myself i and we need this check. I love that free money. I dont give a fuk if these politicianz benefit as long as poor people get that help.
BIG DICK ENERGY BIDEN
I CANT BELIEVE HOW IGNORANT TO THE FACTS YOU PEOPLE ARE CLUELESS...HEY BIDEN WHERES THE 2000.00 PAYMENTS..ROTFLMFAO
That’s great & thank you all for your hard work to accomplish this. Now can the administration please direct focus on what we are going to do about the climate
Most of this money going to payoff Biden’s overseas debts 😡
Why do Senators whith children out of school receive $1400 a week but American citizens who pay the taxes do not receive this benefit? This is the purest form of being RAISIST! You don't work for Congress you are nothing
What pisses me off is they (the Republicans) amended the bill in significant parts but still didn’t vote for it.
Billions and billions going over seas and let’s see how inflation works out
Good news. WBANBUZZ Girlboxingnow raquelruizwrite
Tell us about the pork, reporters....
Can we please have the headline be more accurate to state it was 'Senate Democrats'? Lots of people don't read past the headline and Republicans had nothing to do with the bill passing. Americans need to know who's working for them.
Thank you president Biden
Imagine if every us citizen got a 2 million dollar check, it would cost less than this entire wasteful bill!! Because a small percentage of this bill is for the us people, the rest is wasted on other countries and things not related to covid!!!
This was no bill to aid American families. The good news is the Pelosi gets her railway, Schumer get his bridge, Harvard get themoney they desperately, federal workers get 15 wks paid to cope with COVID issues they deal with. A victory for Biden? The American people have lost.
Go,Dems.🌹
One thing not to forget... 1.9 trillion = approx $5,700 new debt for EVERY MAN, WOMAN, AND CHILD in this country. The government doesn't have any money. They get their money from us.
It's just unbelievable how little the GQP is willing to do to help the country! It's like they're actively working on behalf of our enemies to destroy the future, hope and dreams of working Americans!
The low down, thieving Republicans should be ashamed. They refused to support this Covid-19 relief bill that 'millions' of Americans need so badly. Shameful....
What’s the over/under on it getting shut down (again) and delayed for a couple more weeks because... politics.
Plenty of pork in that bill
This post is a joke. This isn’t Bidens Bill... we all know who wrote it and it sure wasn’t him.
Lot of pork ! Shame on you Democrats for destroying this country

An absolute failure is a legislative victory now? WTF?
But tax the hell out of them later..
But still won't increase minimum wage to help the people shame on the government

And stuck more money in special interests for the left and propped up the failed states of California and New York. The citizens get very little of this money...
The is a cash grab for the corrupt Democratic party!! .9% to Covid-19 is not a relief fund!
No republicans needed in 2021 😘
Good news! Onward to VotingRights, Infrastructure, and Immigration legislation. Also another attempt at raising the MinimumWage. Except for the tired and disproven arguments put forward by the business lobby against a very gradual wage hike, no reason for it not to pass.
Im waiting to see how the conservatives will use this against the liberals like they did with Obamacare.
Amirxvx
Its not a 1.9 trillion coronavirus relief plan. 9% of it is. The rest is unnecessary and wasteful. POTUS should be ashamed of himself. I certainly am ashamed of him.
They (Senate) can pass measures for them and say it’s for us. Washington politicians— hell-bent on destroying our way of life. Open up the economy you morons. This stimulus (BULL) is not what we voted for.
Hiw much did congress give themselves?
Perseverance prevailed...Thank heavens....!🇺🇸🗽

More promises KEPT
Thank God. At least some care, not the GOP of Trump.
It’s sad that our leaders could not all vote for relief for the American people. The vote should have been 100 yea and 0 No Votes
Of course it did, they have that last vote. Now the Biden administration can pay back their campaign supporters the money they used to buy votes. Maybe Portland & Seattle businesses that were looted, should have their hands out. There should be lots to go around 9% to COVID-19.
Stop the Democratic lies and terroristism. Parashat Nitzavim!
JoeBiden sucks hairy ballads and sniffs children. Fuk ur stimulus package, lower oil prices like a REAL POTUS did last 4yrs. DonaldTrump is the BEST!!! Fuk you puppet JoeBiden

It seems whenever Pelosi says a bill is for 'the American people' it's for EVERYTHING but, case in point the 1.9 trillion for the peoples bill, the 'people' will get a check for 1400 down from 2k of our own money back and they keep the rest to spend on what they want, such a deal
and college students?!
Republicans, Republicans whats hell are we gonna do with you guys .. this is no about Blue or Red states. Apparently they don't get that.!
What a fraud committed on the U.S taxpayer compliments of the democrat party....again....
With all the $$ in this bill for Education, State Govts & Local Govts there should be no need for school tax increase for at least next 2 years!!!! COVID19
Donate it if you don’t need it! GIVE!!!!!!!
Well done Joe!!!!
Clarify: senate Democrats.
Enjoy your 9%. It's all you're going to get.
Has anyone ever seen a republican actually send one of these horrible, wasteful, evil, socialist checks back to the government....for their grandkids?
Wonderful now our kids can send their kids off to wars to pay for these traitors spending, just fucking Wonderful! Who do you all think has to pay for all this debt your insane leftist leaders are passing? It is our kids that get to pay it or go to war for.
I'm reading slightly different language when referring to the first $10,200 in unemployment benefits being tax-free. Is that for 2020 (most stories seem to note as such), 2021 or both?
Thank God POTUS cares about average Americans. AmericanRescuePlan
Not a single Republican voted for CovidReliefBill HouseGOP SenateGOP GOPBetrayedAmerica
TN Senators Blackburn and Haggerty once again NOT looking out for Tennesseans and voting against our best interest. Either of you planning a town hall to explain why you feel Tennesseans didn't need any relief? When you get your $1400 drop Nancy Pelosi a nice thank you note.
Where is the promised $2000 check
What is the percentage of the 1.9 trillion dollars that is actually going towards Covid relief 9% 10% or more? How much of it is going to other countries?
Nice. A whole 9% of this piece of crap actually goes for covid. The rest is pork-barrel socialist crap.
The government doing their job to make sure people don’t die. Why did it take THIS long though And why aren’t we being paid to stay home so that this pandemic can end?!
9% of this bill is for relief to Americans 9% one more time 9% now go tell your friends 9%
Its about time.
I’m rich, lol
Trash prez
And that's how the rest of JoeBiden term will go . Push back and resistance on every policy he tries to introduce . If the democrats don't start preparing for the 2022 elections , I'll be TOTALLY CONVINCED that some MAGA also wears Blue.......
Well here comes higher taxes and inflation don't think for a minute that we won't have to pay it back. Fuel has jumped 90 cents a gallon already. Brace yourself people.
You are welcome.
Republican's are truly the party of 'no,' unless legislation can be couched in terms of 'religious liberty,' gun rights, voter suppression, or White exaltation. whiteexaltation
About frigging time!
Waste of money. They should just divide the money amongst the poorest people in the country. The ones who need it. Instead this is gonna line a lot of politicians pockets. Shame. Corrupt
Republications didn't have a problem spending $1.9 trillion to give tax breaks to their WEALTHY FRIENDS have a problem putting $ into the pockets of HARD-WORKING AMERICANS suffering through the worst health care crisis this country has seen in a century.
The more taxes Americans pay, the more these Donkacrats get rich.
Thank god for Democrats and looking out for people. Side note, those that are mad now, where was the outrage for the package last year ($3 trillion) that did jack shit and put us in a worse place. Please explain your outrage besides it’s a party you didn’t want that passed it.
Now this is a president!!!!
I mean I didn’t get a dime from the last one and I will not get a dime from this either. Making 85K doesn’t mean we don’t have bills to pay, this is before taxes. It’s unfair because some people are home getting paid and someof us are here working and not getting any help.
Republicans will now have to prove that they work for the American people?
Don't get too excited murka, some people in the UK got government relief and now they're pushing up all taxes by a huge margin, corporation tax is going up 25% alone! Remember, the money you get now has to come from somewhere and it's not coming from the politicians and CEOs
F the GQP and their BS delays. I wanna smack somebody. Go for it Terry....
npr, do you agree with all of the handouts in this bill?
Only 9% of this bill is going to the people.... it should not be labeled as a coronavirus relief plan.
This whole thing has been so frustrating. The GOP willing to happily sign a huge tax cut but Covid relief? They instead decide to stall, bitch and moan the entire time. Then Dems fold like they always do and sacrifice parts of the package they wanted
Meanwhile less people are getting relief checks than under Trump, less benefits, and no minimum wage increase.
How much did Pakistan get ?
Finally. Maybe they can vote through the federal minimum wage ne- ... What, sen. kyrstensinema voted no like some hipster bisexual gemini in the most ridiculous way possible? What the ACTUAL fuck?
so when do i get my stimmy
We love and Thank you for the much needed relief ❤️❤️❤️
So how is it divided up?
Good
Inflation coming
Are they passing for a pass to get a pass for a pass that’s passing a new pass
I’ll laugh if the third stimulus gets to us before the tax return
Only 9% of what is in this bill goes towards COVID RELIEF. 9%. Don't forget that. Biden and the DemonRATS fooled you all again.
Well I did a dime from the last one and I’m not getting a dime from this one so I could care less. Making 85K doesn’t mean I don’t have bill to pay this is all before taxes so it’s unfair to us. People are home getting paid and we’re working and getting nothing.
SHAME ON THE GOP!!

Why do you keep calling it the Biden plan it’s Nancy and Chuck’s baby all the way

How is it still 1.9 trillion after Manchin demanded cuts to who is eligible and said no to raise the weekly payments from 300 to 400?
What is going on in the heads of the Republican senate ? Rolling eyes....
This relief bill is just as phoney and fake is this presidency
Dems have tried since May 2020 to get $$$ relief to the people. If Dems did not control the white house, house and senate nobody would be getting the help financially or for covid. Remember this in 2022 and 2024 people and vote accordingly.
Amazing work
So now it goes back to congress to do the final pass right?
About time. Why do these issues take so long to get a vote? If some foreign aid could decrease for a short time, maybe our struggling economy and hard hit Americans can breathe. Ty for the decision.
Seriously needed, more experiments in social studies.
Who didn't vote?
Thank staceyabrams for this. Without her work in GA this would not have happened.
Sounds like the American people are getting a great deal.
