Several Senate Democrats are pushing the Biden administration to include recurring stimulus payments in the pending pandemic recovery package—rather than just issuing $1,400 checks.

A letter sent by Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) and signed by 10 senators calls for President Joe Biden to provide recurring direct payments and unemployment insurance extensions.
