Democrats are pulling back on promise to Americans in need

Democrats won the White House! They won Congress! What got them there? What was the promise? The $2,000 checks! Now it's all back tracking. 'Well, we meant $1400 added to the $600.” Read the fine print, blah blah blah!
Americans are hurting. Eighty percent of Americans believe this is important. They need relief. Do something for those you're supposed to be representing. Keep it simple. Win the midterms and another four years in the White House right now. There's a word that many people use along with the word Democrat, and that word is weak. You have Congress and the White House. Show some strength! Pass $2,000 checks for everyone. Be transparent and follow through with your promises and stop being shady used car salesmen.
