Some Senate Republicans are vying to extend stimulus payments in the next pandemic relief bill to nearly 2 million people who were not included in the first round of payments.

Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) said they want to ensure that U.S. citizens married to foreign nationals who don’t have a Social Security number receive the up to $1,200 payments.
