Congress Unable To Deliver Second Stimulus Package

Democrats and Republicans failed to agree on a second stimulus package and were unable to deliver the much needed aid on its self-imposed deadline.

President Trump said that if policy makers do not resolve the second stimulus package issues, he would take things into his own hands. He said that if Democrats continue to hold this critical relief hostage, “I will act under my authority as president to get Americans the relief they need.”

Today, a lot of families can’t make their rent payment. The grocery prices keep going on up and the free food lines are getting longer. The virus testing is going very slow. Students can’t go back to school which is creating a lot of social problems. Is this the country we are living in?

We deeply regret that our country is in such deep trouble. Is America no longer beautiful?

紓困案遭遇阻困

白宮和國會領袖经過十二回和之談判，仍未對紓困案達成協議，川普總統聲稱，如果民主黨仍然堅持，我將動用總統權限來解決人民之需要。

成千上萬正待救濟的失業人口已經成為民主共和兩黨爭議的主題，民主黨希望維持每週六百元之救濟金，但是共和黨認為這是養懶人的做法，其中還有對州政府地方之補助方式也各持己見，看來本週前將無法得到解決。

根據最新數據顯示，全國物價目前正在不斷上漲，無數家庭付不出房租，免費食物隊伍越排越長，病毒檢測緩慢，無法到校上課學生造成諸多社會問題。

這是我們熟知的美利堅共和國嗎？川普總統還繼續在外交上採取強硬政策， 內政紛爭不斷，面对天災人禍，让我們大家共同參與改變。

願天佑美國！
