Late this past week, the U.S. Senate approved a $1.9 trillion budget bill to fast-track Biden’s stimulus plan, which includes more COVID-19 relief. It now appears likely that this stimulus relief will be approved by March. While the details of this American rescue plan are still not final, here’s what Biden’s plan calls for, according to CNBC:

  • Direct payments of $1,400 to most Americans, bringing the total relief to $2,000, including December’s $600 payments

  • Increasing the federal, per-week unemployment benefit to $400 and extending it through the end of September

  • Increasing the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour

  • Extending the eviction and foreclosure moratoriums until the end of September
