Pres. Trump has long bee expressing his support for the second round of stimulus package that will help millions of Americans heavily impacted by the global pandemic. Trump's administration attempted to reach a deal many times, but the Democrats keep on rejecting the offer. 

On Friday, White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows revealed that they offered an amount of $1.3 trillion stimulus package, hoping that it will be discussed on the floor as early as next week. However, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that it is not enough. 

The Democratic House Speaker wanted to have $2.2. trillion for the second round of stimulus package. Following this, Pres. Trump said that he would immediately sign the $1.3 trillion his administration offered once after deliberated on the floor. 

Suppose House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will continue to decline the amount offered by Pres. Trump's administration for the next round of stimulus package until the end of this month, millions of Americans will n longer receive relief aids such as unemployment benefits, house eviction protection, funding, schools, stimulus checks, and more. 

The Democratic House Speaker has only two options right now. It is either to help millions of Americans by accepting the amount offered by Trump's administration or not accept it and let Americans suffer the economic devastation of the global pandemic. 

It can be remembered that Pres. Trump has been doubling his effort following the failed negotiations between the Republicans and Democrats on the second round of stimulus package. This is despite the criticisms he received as the election nears. 

Pres. This month, Trump signed and issued an executive order that expanded the enhanced unemployment benefits and mandated the Federal Emergency Management Agency to use its unspent budget. Ideally, qualified individuals will receive $300 from the agency and the federal government, while the state has the option to add $100. 

He also issued three another memorandum, and these are house eviction protection, freezing of student, and delaying the collection of payroll taxes. He even said that he would terminate the collection of payroll taxes once he gets re-elected so that people will have more money on their pockets as the country struggles to combat the pandemic's economic impact. 

Aside from this, Pres. Trump's Chief of Staff Mark Meadows never stopped also to communicate House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. During a rare Saturday vote last Saturday, he attempted to have a meeting with Pelosi to propose the new stimulus package, but he was told that Pelosi was in a meeting. 

Recently, he personally called Pelosi to discuss the overall stimulus package that the White House wanted to pass in Congress as soon as possible. The call lasted for 25 minutes, but Pelosi continued to decline the offer of the White House. 

One of the reasons why Trump's administration keeps on pushing for the second round of stimulus package this September because, on the first day of October, all government functions will shut down in preparation for the Nov.3 election. 

The House Speaker has only two options to accept the $1.3 trillion, and have millions of Americans receive their financial aids, or continue to reject the proposal. Millions of Americans will receive nothing even a single cent from the federal government.
