Federal stimulus checks are a thing of the past, and now state stimulus and UBI payments and programs have been created.
As Americans continue to struggle with paying for gas and groceries, states are taking notice and doing something about it.
Here are 11 places in the U.S. where UBI programs are happening instead of just one time stimulus payments
Paterson, New Jersey has a UBI program that’s coming to an end after giving 110 residents $400 per month for one year starting in July of 2021.
Philadelphia started their UBI program in March with 60 people, giving them $500 per month for one year.
