One of Georgia’s newest U.S. Senators emphatically stands behind the new, $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief package. Sen. Jon Ossoff also credited Georgia voters with making the nationwide aid a reality saying, “If we had not won those two runoff elections in January, we could not have passed this legislation.”
Ossoff says it’s the most progressive economic relief legislation passed in generations — and that it could mean upwards of $10,000 in financial aid for a working-class family of four by way of stimulus checks and tax breaks.
The House has passed the stimulus. The President is expected to sign the bill on Friday.
