Just looked up this act ypu are talking about. $200 Billion cost in first year $10 trillion in 10 years. Who is paying for this? Free money to people to make them wealthier? Sorry how about go out and earn it for themselves. Work hard learn and get better jobs
Half of Americans are a $500 emergency away from a financial catastrophe. The LIFT Act would help to put more money back in the pockets of millions of hardworking American families.

Will they be required to save the money for said emergency?
-
Nope, they’ll spend it and still be $500 away from an emergency.

If Congress would reduce their pay by $100,000 to $75,000 we would all have more money.

It's just another form of earned income credit. Doesn't address low wages and citizens inability to save. More government nanny state.

You could just cut our taxes instead of taking more of our money just to give it back to us.

Lady Harris $500 is generous. I had to move back in with my parents or stay with an abusive ex those were my choices because I was disabled. And some how that’s 1.ok and 2. My fault. I was studying criminology, I was bettering myself but to so many I’m disposable.

I truly hope you know this isn’t about “fault” as we are in a system that thrives on the wealth disparity. If you need to talk with a financial coach check out http://www.findmyfinancialcoach.com a project of the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau
