Sen. Durbin Supports Stimulus Package

The US Senate passed a $1.9 trillion bill to support the economy, speed vaccine distribution, grow the child tax credit and more.

 

But the bill moved with only Democrat votes in the Senate. Illinois’ Dick Durbin says he can’t understand that. After all every Democrat voted to pass bills as big under then President Trump. Durbin says it didn’t matter then who got the political win and it shouldn’t matter now.

 

 

Enhanced unemployment benefits are being extended with the bill and people who have lost their jobs but are paying for healthcare through CORBA are due support in affording those premiums.
