If you believed President Joe Biden one month ago, you might think he is about to give you a $2,000 stimulus check.
Biden and the Democratic Party made it clear: give them a majority in the U.S. Senate by voting for both Democrats in the Georgia runoff elections, and the money will come. To some, that might sound like bribery, but then again, we're in a downturn, unemployment is high, and millions of Americans are struggling. Regardless of how one feels about stimulus payments — whether you oppose them completely or favor recurring $2,000 monthly payments to everyone, including illegal aliens or somewhere in between — Biden made his stance clear.
U.S. senators plan to pepper Boston Mayor Marty Walsh with questions later this week.
Walsh, who is President Joe Biden's pick to serve as federal Department of Labor secretary, has a hearing scheduled for about 10 a.m. Thursday, February 4, as CBS Boston reports.
