WASHINGTON (WHTC-AM/FM) – Now that a nearly 500 billion-dollar coronavirus aid package has cleared Congress and was signed by President Trump on Friday afternoon, thoughts in Washington now turn to whether another aid package will be forthcoming from Capitol Hill.
Although the vote in the House on Thursday was overwhelmingly in favor of what some are calling “Stimulus 3.5,” there were some, such as Zeeland Republican Bill Huizenga, who had some reservations, saying that “we need to let things settle a little bit” before any more relief money is doled out.
“We need to let the funds get out and see what the impact is,” he mentioned during his weekly interview on “WHTC Morning News.” “That is what, quite honestly, the hesitation I and others had, but I think it’s going to be a little bit (before we consider another stimulus package). We got to see what the next few weeks bring.”
According to a Coronavirus Relief Survey released on Wednesday by the financial advising website WalletHub, “84 percent of Americans want another wave of stimulus checks.”
