Is this part of the stimulus bill or are we seriously imposing a #YangGang style UBI?

Looks like an ongoing UBI from the wording of the text.

I oppose UBI, so I don't support this Act.

Yeah I agree with Jimmy. As much as I meme about #YangGang  Sunglasses and how I want the 1000$ from the government with no strings attached, in reality a UBI bill is not good.

I'm not comfortable with a permanent UBI and more evidence us needed to show it won't backfire but will work as intended.

Nay

I'm not comfortable with expanding the welfare state even more on top of the existing stimulus legislation. Maybe I can get on board with this if we repealed some other programs.
