U.S. President Joe Biden urged the Senate to pass the massive economic stimulus bill passed through the House on Saturday the 27th local time.

He stressed that if the bill is passed, it will be able to overcome the coronavirus and restore the economy.

[조 바이든 / 미국 대통령 : 허비할 시간이 없습니다. 우리가 지금 단호하고, 신속하고, 대담하게 행동한다면 마침내 바이러스를 극복하고 경제를 다시 살릴 것입니다.]

He stressed that the American people have been suffering for too long and that it is a measure to alleviate this suffering.

[조 바이든 / 미국 대통령 : 이 나라 국민들이 너무 오래, 너무 많이 고통받아왔습니다. 이 고통을 덜어주어야 합니다. 바로 이 법안이 그렇게 해줄 것입니다. 행동할 때입니다.]

Earlier, the US House of Representatives passed an economic stimulus bill worth $1.9 trillion and about 2,140 trillion won in our money early this morning.

In the support plan, plans include a cash payment of 1,000,400 dollars per adult in the United States, expansion of vaccinations and tests, and funding to support school normalization.

It also included a provision to increase the minimum wage to $15 per hour by 2025.

The Democratic Party was planning to mobilize budget control in the Senate to pass the economic stimulus bill without the cooperation of the Republican Party, but it is in a difficult situation as the Senate secretariat interprets that the minimum wage clause is not subject.

This massive economic stimulus plan is the first major agenda since President Biden’s inauguration.
