Tlaib bill would give everyone $2G a month during pandemic, including illegal immigrants

Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., is pushing a bill that would give everyone in the U.S., including undocumented immigrants, $2,000 a month during the coronavirus crisis.

The bill "would be funded directly from the Treasury with no additional debt issued by minting two $1 trillion coins, and additional coins as necessary," Tlaib and Jayapal said in a press release. "One in seven families don’t have enough to eat. More than eight million people have been pushed into poverty. Nearly one million new people are filing for unemployment every single week," Jayapal said in a statement.
