'We need to provide our families with support right now. We have no time to waste,' Congressman Joe Kennedy III tweeted on Wednesday.
Both Republican and Democrat lawmakers, as well as economists have weighed in with various additional ways to address the concerns of Americans. From sending out checks to individuals and families, to tax cuts and low-interest loans, there are many ideas and options being discussed.
"We need to provide our families with support right now. We have no time to waste," Kennedy wrote in a Wednesday tweet. "Direct cash assistance is the most powerful tool we have for immediate economic stimulus–and survival," he added.It's been estimated that the unemployment rate could hit 20% if we don't act boldly. A one or two time check isn't good enoughâthe government must tell every small and mid-sized business owner that we'll cover 100% of their payroll if they don't lay off anyone during this crisis.
