Pelosi responds to Trump: Let’s push for $2K checks ‘this week’

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Tuesday night responded to President Trump‘s call for an increase in stimulus funds following Congress’s passage of the COVID-19 relief package this week, saying she’s ready to push for the $2,000 checks the president requested.

Republicans repeatedly refused to say what amount the President wanted for direct checks. At last, the President has agreed to $2,000 — Democrats are ready to bring this to the Floor this week by unanimous consent. Let’s do it! https://t.co/Th4sztrpLV

We spent months trying to secure $2000 checks but Republicans blocked it

Trump needs to sign the bill to help people and keep the government open and we're glad to pass more aid Americans need

Maybe Trump can finally make himself useful and get Republicans not to block it again
