A new proposal in gaining support across the nation as Americans say $2,000 per month would help Americans weather the pandemic.
A petition has been created and calls on both Congress and President Joe Biden to send Americans these monthly stimulus checks worth $2,000.
The petition is through Change.org and has garnered almost 5 million signatures.
The direct deposits started Oct. 29 and checks started being sent out Nov. 1.
Californian’s without kids will get $600 if they qualify and those with dependents are getting $1,100.
