UPDATE: (3-26-20) the checks that will be issued by the U.S. government is for $1,200 and only for one month, not two, as was previously stated in congressional debates before the bill actually passed. Americans online are not amused by this development, as seen in comments on social networking. People on social networking are complaining it is not enough to keep them afloat during this crisis.

U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi

After days of tense debate, the U.S. Congress has passed a $2 trillion coronavirus relief bill. The initial vote failed in the Senate, due to items being included in the proposed bill, which have nothing or very little to do with the current coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreak that is gripping the world (Congress Slammed On Social Networking For Delays In Coronavirus Relief Bill).

Reports indicate House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi, was forced to leave some non-coronavirus items out of the bill in order for it to pass today. The main priority must be the public. Each adult in America will receive a check for $1,200 for one month to help with expenses during this rough time. The stimulus bill also includes financial assistance for businesses.
