Although the federal government has stopped issuing stimulus checks to the public to combat the crisis caused by the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic, some states are about to send a fourth check to households to try to mitigate the effects of inflation in the increase of prices of goods and services resulting from the rise in the price of oil, as well as the war on the other side of the world.
Only a few people are eligible.
These payments may assist 87 million residents, albeit not everyone may be eligible.
The sums of money will now be far smaller than those approved during the pandemic, largely to avoid aggravating inflation by injecting more money into a market where supply is already less than demand.
Inflation increased by 7.9% in February alone, resulting in consumer prices reaching a 40-year high.
Idaho, Georgia, Indiana, New Jersey, and New Mexico are the five states that have previously accepted the idea to send a new stimulus check against inflation.
