There is one group of people that fall between unemployment and pandemic assistance unemployment. Those drawing Social Security and Social Security Disability have been forgotten. Those that have Social Security as their only income have been greatly impacted, and there has been no mention of this group. Most of these folks are your parents or grandparents, aunts and uncles. They have worked hard all of their lives now to live amidst such a struggle just to buy food and medication and keep their lights on. Surely you do not want that for your family member. With the Back to Work program, there is a section of disabled folks that are allowed to work a tiny amount of hours each week, if medically possible (given their disability), within the guidelines SS has set up. They cannot pay rent, mortgages, pharmacy bills, even expected monthly bills such as electricity, with the one time $1200 stimulus payment! A lot of folks have had to double up and delay payment for phone or electricity for two months, while it was already difficult to pay just for one month. While all are thankful IF they have received the stimulus check, many that I know have not even received the first check!! They are going to be so far behind on all bills, where do they go for help? How can SO MANY I know even afford to EAT and buy food and much needed maintenance medications without ANY INCOME?! Retail Pharmacies do not allow you to run a tab and pay whenever! These medications are crucial in order to just function on the most basic, bare level, even staying at home. Chronic pain patients are very hard-hit. Those that are living on a disability check have had to stack up several months on some bills. There is simply no money at all just to exist! PLEASE HELP!! I know a lot of self employed people that make such a small amount of money and some are also drawing disability. They just cannot live on the disability check and the self-employment assistance WILL NOT be available to these good people. How do we help them??? They were barely squeaking by before now. We are the “richest country in the world” and to say these folks live on a fixed income doesn’t even begin to describe the tiny amount of money they have to juggle. This SHOULD NOT HAPPEN in the USA. #nooneshouldgowithout #allofusneedtoeat #helpthepeopleleftout #disabledandforgotten

Reaching out to neighbors and friends, even if it is virtually, can help our society thrive even in the face of a pandemic. If we choose, instead, to curl in on ourselves and ignore the plight of those around us, we lose part of our humanity. It is important to preserve our compassion. This period in history is difficult, but we can ease some of the pain if we remember that we are not alone and that we have the power to help ourselves and others.

People who are paying taxes and in repayment plan are in just as much trouble as others and the relief benefit should go into their hands to stay afloat and not get further in debt. It is unfair to say all americans get help with the relief act because you are leaving many of us behind.

They have worked 13 years to graduate. We can not take their ceremony from them. They have worked so hard and deserve this. They should not be punished for the virus. It's not their fault and they would be the only class to not get a proper graduation. Many parents have invested in their senior from kindergarten till now, senior pics, invitations and caps and gowns on top of the emotional toll it has put on many in absolute tears and devastation today.

1) The Economic Impact relief Fund has been instituted by an Act of Congress in a Bipartisan move, NOT by any Executive Order! 2) In EVERY Sense it is UNETHICAL to attach personal memo or Name on the checks because the use of Public Office to Promote Election Agenda is UNETHICAL and should be PROHIBITED BY AN ACT OF CONGRESS for current & All times! The People of America will not allow opportunistic tendencies to be carried out from the Public Offices! 3) POTUS office is a PUBLIC Office, NOT a PRIVATE, PERSONAL FAMILY ORGANIZATION and the Citizens are NOT an Employee of the Office of the POTUS. ------ The Opportunists MUST BE SHOWN THE DOOR, In all Times! The God & Commonsense BOTH of them AGREE on this important matter, all around the world. ----- **IT IS TO BE REMEMBERED THAT BY JUDGING THE MERIT OF CIRCUMSTANCES WE THE PEOPLE HOLD THE POWER TO FIRE POTUS FROM THE JOB; THIS IS OUR CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY**
