Amid massive economic crises and financial struggles for so many Americans, there is bipartisan support for $2,000 stimulus checks.

President Trump has called for checks of this amount and the House of Representatives is backing him on this as well; earlier today, Georgia Republicans David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, also came out in favor of $2,000 relief payments.

However, a measure of this nature is one that must work its way through Congress. This means that the necessary support and votes must be available in both the House and the Senate.

Today, Senate members indicated that they are not on board with the measure that would grant $2,000 stimulus checks to Americans.

Why the Senate voted "no deal" on $2,000 stimulus checks

As things currently stand, it's looking like Americans shouldn't hold their breath in waiting for $2,000 stimulus checks. While the House passed the measure to provide these relief payments, Senate Republicans shut it down.

Now, there are multiple reasons why $2,000 stimulus checks have not received senatorial approval. Some GOP senators noted that payments of this nature are not directly targeted to individuals suffering economically, but instead would go to all folks earning an income below $75,000.

Other Republicans in the Senate cited fiscal concerns as their reasons for opposing $2,000 stimulus checks. Massive and unchecked government spending is a huge contributing factor to the nation's growing debt.

Response from the Democrats

Democrats are fiercely supportive of $2,000 stimulus payments. Since the ruling of the Senate, congressional Democrats are unleashing on Republicans.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer professed earlier today that the body's Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is the one who "holds the key" to alleviating economic crises across America.

If Senate Republicans were to get on board with the crusade for $2,000 stimulus checks, this would add a grand sum of $464 billion dollars to the present relief package containing $900 billion dollars.

Under the current stimulus plan, there are protections and funds designed to help Americans. These funds will go to relief for hospitals, small businesses, and other facilities; in addition to $600 relief checks, protections against evictions are also present in the bill.

In the days and weeks to come, Americans should expect to hear a lot more talk about $2,000 stimulus checks.
