Trump assures to address the second stimulus package through executive orders
Democrats and Republicans failed to agree on a second stimulus package, and Congress was unable to deliver the second stimulus aid on its self-imposed deadline. Trump wants to address the stimulus matter by taking things in his hands via executive orders. In this speech today, he made it clear if policymakers do not resolve the second stimulus package issue, he will. He said, “If Democrats continue to hold this critical relief, I will act under my authority as president to get Americans the relief they need.” It is essential to mention that Trump said before that he could be issuing executive orders today to address the second stimulus aid package. From a legal standpoint, it is still not clear if he can do that. But now it seems like he is still relying on his administration. Trump has some hope from policymakers who are involved in this negotiation process. Trump said, “my administration continues to work in good faith to reach an agreement with Democrats in Congress that will extend unemployment benefits provide protections against evictions.
