Higgins Announces Details of New Heroes Act COVID Relief Package
House Vote Could Come as Soon as this Week on Legislation that Meets the Immediate Needs of Families, Communities and Businesses Struggling Due to the Pandemic
Congressman Brian Higgins (NY-26) announced details of a newly released pandemic response package that provides relief to families, communities and businesses struggling due to the current pandemic. The updated Heroes Act legislation provides $2.2 trillion to address the immediate needs of the ongoing economic and health crisis, including direct relief to Americans and local municipalities.
“Our country continues to face a national emergency and scientists warn us of additional challenges in the months ahead,” said Higgins. “If we don’t act now there will be additional layoffs, more businesses will close, families will continue to struggle to meet life’s most basic needs and schools and municipalities will be crushed under the weight of declining revenues and increasing expenses.”
