President-elect Joe Biden laid out a $1.9 trillion emergency relief plan on 14 Jan 2021 in order to steer the nation out of a pandemic disaster and rapidly deteriorating economy. Biden is aiming to get GOP support for the measure, although at nearly $2 trillion the price tag is likely to be too high.
