The central government of the United States of America has failed its citizens during the distressing time of the COVID-19 pandemic. On the other hand, individual states have been trying to assist their citizens and they have been doing fairly well in terms of giving stimulus checks.
Many of the states in the US have now come up with more helping hands for the people. Most states have already taken the decision to provide extra stimulus checks directly into their mailbox or into their bank accounts. This has made the people extremely happy.
US Stimulus Checks Awaited
US Senate is yet to approve another payment round of the child credit tax on a monthly basis that was supposed to be approved last December. Since that time, states extended their support and ensured more stimulus benefits based on basic income. States also gave gas rebates owing to the soaring prices at gas stations.
The most recent example of such a supportive US state is Pennsylvania. Tom Wolf, their governor, has proposed giving stimulus checks of almost $2000 to the residents. However, residents’ income must be under $80000.
Pennsylvanian Stimulus Money
Governor Wolf announced that everything costs more and their citizens wholly depend on their paychecks. He also added that most people are forced to give up basic necessities and his government decided to step up. He said the Republicans have the support of $2 billion that has to be returned if not utilized timely. Governor Wolf has decided on using $500 million from that unused fund as free money for the residents.
Additionally, other states h=are contemplating giving additional stimulus payments. Georgia government announced giving $850 per month to women for more than 2 years. Massachusetts is also providing $500 stimulus benefits.
