Americans are questioning the prospect of a second round of direct stimulus payments amid the COVID-19 crisis.
"I think it's inevitable before the Fourth of July," Senator Roger Wicker said."I just think it'll be needed with the economy."The majority of stimulus payments have been made to those who qualify for them.
In a news release on May 18, the Treasury said more than 140 million Economic Impact Payments had been made, worth around $239 billion collectively. In that announcement it said the Treasury and Internal Revenue Service were looking this week to begin to nearly 4 million Economic Impact Payments by prepaid debit card instead of by paper check.Payments made so far have largely been made by direct payments to accounts, to those who registered before May 13 to receive their pay that way.The IRS has said while it is sending checks at a quicker rate, some recipients could expect them to arrive from late May into June.
