Democrat Lawmakers Call for Recurring Stimulus Payments in Coronavirus Relief Bill, Illegal Immigrants Included
[Breitbart] Dozens of House lawmakers, led by Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), are calling for future coronavirus relief measures to include recurring stimulus payments that extend to those who have Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITIN), which includes illegal immigrants.In a Thursday letter to President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the lawmakers said they are "appreciative" of the administration’s work to ensure that Americans receive another "survival" check as soon as possible. However, they believe that officials must take "additional unprecedented action" in the form of recurring cash payments in future economic relief plans. Such would "provide a longterm lifeline to struggling Americans for the duration of this deadly pandemic," they wrote, citing "worsening systemic inequities." Posted by: Besoeker 2021-01-29 |
