"There is an ever-urgent need for effective fiscal mobilization to keep the budget deficit," Biden said in a press conference. These investments will prevent the economy from deteriorating in the long run, and the profits will far outweigh the costs. It will be. "



The economic policy plan states that $ 1,400 will be added to the $ 600 per capita cash benefit included in the economic policy passed last month.



It also includes costs for the significant expansion of vaccination and virus testing, subsidies to the provincial and local governments for the response, and the cost of resuming classes in public school classrooms.



The local media reported that "if it is established, it will be the largest economic measure in the history of the United States," and as President-elect Biden, he has shown his willingness to rebuild the US economy through large-scale fiscal mobilization immediately after the inauguration of the administration.
