Coronavirus bill clears Congress, $2 trillion CARES Act (H.R. 748) heads to Trump for signature

The House of Representatives just passed the CARES Act, a $2 trillion coronavirus/COVID-19 stimulus and relief bill, by voice vote. Its now headed to the White House for impeached president Donald Trump's signature.

The coronavirus bill promises direct payments of $1,200 to every United States resident with a social security number who makes up to $75,000 per year.

Residents who make up to $99,000 a year will get smaller checks.

Residents who make less than $99,000, you will receive nothing.

Good luck, everyone.

.@RepThomasMassie objected to the vote because of a lack of quorum. The Chair determined there was a quorum present. H.R. 748 passed by voice.

That really was an empty, dangerous and expensive gesture, pulling 200-plus people back to the Capitol #coronavirus
