Biden signs bill into law

The check is in the mail. The White House said direct deposits will come as soon as this weekend.

Highlights from the bill:

  • $1,400 stimulus checks
  • $300-a-week jobless benefits
  • $3,000-$3,600 cash for kids
  • $34B for ACA subsidies
  • 100% COBRA subsidies
  • $350B state/local aid
  • $14B vaccine distribution
  • $25B rental aid

The IMF said the bill would boost US GDP by 5-6% over the next three years and that would spill over into growth and exports in much of the world.
