US President Donald Trump and Democrat leader of the United States House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi have suggested ideas for a new support package.
Trump wants money to go to infrastructure to create jobs, Pelosi thinks more money should go to states as support.
According to her, everything in the new package of measures should be traced back to the virus.
Trump said on Twitter that this is the time to invest a lot of money in infrastructure. The interest rate steps of the Federal Reserve allow the United States to borrow money very cheaply.
Trump has been shouting throughout his presidency that he wants to put money into infrastructure projects, but that hasn’t happened yet. Now he wants $ 2 trillion to be earmarked.
Pelosi wants to give money to things that have to do with the outbreak of the coronavirus. For example, US states should receive money, and households may need to receive direct payments again.
