President Trump Signs Coronavirus Relief Bill With $600 Stimulus Checks

On Sunday, President Trump signed the $2.3 trillion coronavirus relief package passed by Congress that includes $600 stimulus checks for Americans. The president had threatened to veto the package if Congress did not increase the payments to $2,000.

In signing the relief package, the president made it clear that he was signing the bill to provide assistance to the American people. The president said he was sending a redlined version of the 5,600-page bill back to Congress asking them to remove wasteful and embarrassing pork spending contained in the legislation.

“I will sign the Omnibus and Covid package with a strong message that makes clear to Congress that wasteful items need to be removed,” the president said in a statement. “I will send back to Congress a redlined version, item by item, accompanied by the formal rescission request to Congress insisting that those funds be removed from the bill.” (Read more from “President Trump Signs Coronavirus Relief Bill With $600 Stimulus Checks” HERE)
