Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) backed President Donald Trump’s call to increase the stimulus checks from $600 to $2,000 on Jan. 1 after they were blocked for the fourth day running by Republicans.

The newly signed $920 billion COVID-19 relief package includes $600 checks, but Trump and Democrats want to increase that amount to $2,000 on the basis that many Americans are in dire need of the extra money after the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic ravaged the country.
