A second wave of stimulus payments may be on the way. The "HEROES Act" would be similar to the first stimulus check with $1,200 for each individual. However, this time around people will get $1,200 for each child, instead of $500. Senator Chuck Schumer is also proposing $67 billion just for New York state, which has been at the epicenter of this pandemic. According to the proposal, $34 billion would go to the state, $17 billion to New York City and $15 billion to other municipalities and counties throughout the state.This new package still needs the approval of House and Senate republicans before it gets sent to the president’s desk.
