Several GOP senators this week introduced a measure to provide more direct payments to families with a potentially higher amount.

Sen.s Bill Cassidy (R-La.), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Steve Daines (R-Mont.), and Mitt Romney (R-Utah) announced the Coronavirus Assistance for American Families Act that would provide $1,000 stimulus payments and checks to individuals, lowering it from the proposed $1,200. But they would also send the $1,000 payments to adult and children dependents.
