The president of the United States had previously refused to support the $ 900 billion package for days.
The president of the United States, Donald Trump, signed a stimulus package from the crown that had been decided by Congress with a bipartisan majority after days of rejection. That came out Sunday night (local time) from a White House statement. Trump had previously indirectly threatened to veto the roughly $ 900 billion (€ 738.13 million) legislative package, calling it “disgraceful.”
Trump called for the majority of US citizens to receive a one-time aid payment of $ 2,000 per adult. The economic stimulus pact only foresees a payment of 600 dollars. Now the White House has said the House of Representatives will vote on a pay increase on Monday. Trump’s Republicans in the House of Parliament had rejected such an effort by the Democrats on Thursday. Additionally, Senate approval would also be required. Republicans had been banning a major stimulus package for months.
Due to the Crown crisis, the United States Congress last approved economic stimulus packages worth about $ 2.7 trillion in the spring. That corresponded to more than 10 percent of annual economic output. More recently, Democrats, who control the House of Representatives, and Republicans, who have a majority in the Senate, argued for months about another package.
The stimulus package also approved part of the federal government budget of about $ 1.4 trillion. With his signing, Trump now prevents the government from running out of money as of Tuesday. Without his signature, government business would have stalled.
