Biden administration weighs plan to directly send masks to all Americans



WASHINGTON — The Biden White house is considering sending masks directly to American households, consistent with three people conversant in the discussions, an action the Trump administration explored but scrapped.

The Covid-19 Response Team is evaluating the logistics of mailing out many face coverings, but no decision has been made, and the proposal hasn't yet reached President Joe Biden for final approval, a White House official said.

The idea has been raised in several meetings among Biden's top health experts in recent days, particularly as Biden continues to urge Americans to use masks as a primary defense against the spread of the coronavirus.

Biden has asked all Americans to wear masks for the primary 100 days of his term, and he has signed several executive actions that mandate wearing face coverings on federal property and aboard transportation systems , moves President Donald Trump never enacted.

It's unclear when the masks would go out to the public, how many would be included per residence and whether they would be disposable or made of cloth. it's also not yet clear what the cost could be.

Prominent among the chief orders include a strict enforcement of procuring products made inside the country by federal agencies. This is often very significant as long as contracting alone accounts for nearly USD 600 billion in federal spending. Biden is taking action to reset the US government's longstanding approach to domestic preferences to make an approach which will remain durable for years to return and grow quality, union jobs, consistent with a senior administration official.

here’s the new Democratic plan

  Here’s the new Democratic plan for $1,400 stimulus checks President Biden promised to get more relief to Americans quickly to help people survive financially until the pandemic is in check . A key part of Biden’s proposal is to send another round of money payments on to U.S. households. Some economists, Republicans and moderate Democrats have argued that this third round of “economic impact payments” — more commonly mentioned as “stimulus checks” or “relief payments” — should go only to the hardest-hit families. Some say the payments are a waste of taxpayer dollars. Biden and Democratic leaders in Congress argue a third round of stimulus checks is necessary to ensure people who have lost their jobs or taken a pay cut still have enough money to buy food, pay rent and get the medical care they need during a pandemic. But the White House has signaled the president is willing to narrow who gets them, sending checks only to low- and moderate-income families this time around. The latest pr
