The Claim of $15,000 Fourth Stimulus Checks
In a recently published article in MSN News, this rumor claims that a fourth stimulus check will be issued, valued at least $15,000 and distributed in groups of several thousand dollars. However, the assertion, which has been widely disseminated by outlets such as the LALATE YouTube channel, is absolutely incorrect or false.
With over 400,000 members, it’s easy to understand how fast the phony news of a fourth stimulus checks for up to $15,000 spread. Despite the fact that the number of searches for “4th stimulus checks passed today” has increased dramatically in recent days, there is no fresh information to provide.
Furthermore, the last child tax credit checks are still being sent out by the federal government. Aside from that, just three stimulus checks have been sent. And it’s virtually guaranteed that a fourth won’t appear before the end of the year, according to a report published in ITECHPOST.
Will Lawmakers Make a Legislation for Fourth Stimulus Checks?
During the coronavirus outbreak, three stimulus cheques have been given to millions of Americans. Two of them are for $1,200 and $600, respectively, under President Trump. President Biden approved legislation earlier this year that allowed for a $3,400 stimulus payout.
At this moment, there’s no sign that the Biden administration will push for further stimulus money. The president and his press secretary have not mentioned them in a long time. At the moment, the focus is on persuading Congress to enact the administration’s large social-spending plan and pushing on with Biden’s domestic strategy, Build Back Better.
