The next round of stimulus will be for $ 1, 400 dollars , to complete payments of $ 600 dollars that began to be distributed at the end of December and which concluded its distribution a few days ago.
The president of House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi says the House of Representatives is accelerating Biden’s plan, and House committees are expected to vote on it this week. It will be “ completely ready ” for the full House to spend the following week, reported Pelosi.
