House Passed American Relief Plan - Next Up President’s Office

As we have been following closely, “by a vote of 220-211, the House passed the measure and cleared it for President Biden’s signature, cementing one of the largest injections of federal aid since the Great Depression. We expect President Biden to sign the bill Friday. Since it does not have to go back to the Senate, there were no changes.”
