A trio of senators is introducing legislation to provide $2,000 in monthly payments during, and in the immediate aftermath of, the coronavirus pandemic.
The bill, from Sens. Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders and Ed Markey, would provide a $2,000 monthly payment to individuals who make up to $100,000 per year. The amount would then be scaled down until it hit an income cap of $120,000 per year for an individual, where it would be phased out altogether.
Under the bill, a $2,000 monthly payment would also be given per child, up to three children. The legislation would be retroactive to March, the same month President Trump declared a national emergency, and would provide the monthly payments until three months after the administration ends the public health emergency.
