Another round of stimulus checks is on the way and Twitter users are enthused, to say the least.
After Congress approved a nearly $1.9 trillion stimulus relief package on Wednesday, President Biden swiftly signed it Thursday, and Press Secretary Jen Psaki announced that the third round of payments could make their way to recipients via direct deposit as early as this weekend.
Most eligible recipients who make $75,000 or less will receive $1,400 checks this time around, with payments for parents and married couples filing jointly available as well. The stimulus news comes at the same time as another hopeful direction from Biden: All states must make every adult eligible for a COVID vaccine by May 1.
Though the $1,400 checks are coming fairly later than expected and aren’t as much money as some had hoped for, they’re still a positive. They’ll assist families in financial need, and they’re clearly something that Twitter users want to celebrate.
As you await your stimmy, your stim stim, your sweet sweet Stimothée Chalamet to hit your bank account, please enjoy these tweets.
Direct deposit: +$1400
