Democrats may lower the phaseout threshold to $50,000 for individuals and $100,000 for married couples, according to Democratic aides. (The Washington Post first reported the lower threshold was under consideration.)

Earlier this week, a group of 10 Republican senators met with Biden at the White House and pitched him on a significantly smaller $600 billion relief package. Their plan calls for just $1,000 direct payments while reducing the income limit that determines eligibility to $50,000.

Republicans might get one of their requests .. no stimulus money for people making over 50k.

Seems the stimulus checks are such a small percentage of the 1.9T pie but the first thing both parties may agree to reduce.

What a bunch of motherfuckers. 1st thing republicans "accomplish" under Biden is to screw millions of middle class Americans. Good work!! Meanwhile there are billions for other bullshit besides helping people.
