(CNN) Millions of jobless gig-workers and independent contractors, as
well as long-term unemployed Americans, are set to lose their
unemployment benefits after this weekend since Donald Trump hasn't
signed the $900 billion relief package Congress passed last week.

What's more, all laid-off workers will likely lose a week of the $300
federal boost to payments because Trump didn't put his signature on the
bill by midnight Saturday.

The Covid-19 relief legislation, which had arrived at Mar-a-Lago by
Friday to await Trump's signature, would extend the number of weeks
people can stay on two key pandemic unemployment programs and increase
weekly benefits by $300 for all through mid-March.

and associates and relatives...)


He would sign a $900 billion relief package most likely. He won’t sign the
$1.3 trillion big pork package attached to the relief package.

The actual "covid relief" is a fraction of that $900 billion.

Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) Second Draw $284 billion
Economic Injury Disaster Loan Advances $20 billion
Emergency Grants to Venues $15 billion
Other Small Business Relief and Program Expenses $6 billion
