So let me just briefly tell you what the legislation that I've introduced would do. First, It would provide every man, woman and child in its first year with a $3,000 check in families earning $150,000 or less. Say, if you're from a family, $150,000 or less, man, woman and child, $3,000 direct payment, which will go a long way to help people buy the food they need, pay the rent, get the health care they need.
