President Donald Trump took executive action on Saturday to extend the weekly enhanced unemployment payment at a reduced level.<\/p>\n

He signed a memorandum<\/a> during a press conference on Saturday afternoon as the negotiations between the White House and the Democrats collapsed.<\/p>\n

The new payment will be $400 per week. The federal government will cover 75 percent of the cost while the states will pay the rest, he said.<\/p>\n

The president said that some governors might not be happy with the actions, suggesting that he didnt negotiate with all governors before the announcement.<\/p>\n

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) didnt immediately respond to an email request for comment.<\/p>\n

The president also, via executive orders or memorandums, deferred payroll tax<\/a> for Americans earning less than $100,000 per year from Sept. 1, authorized The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to offer eviction protections<\/a> to renters and homeowners, and extended the term of relief to student loan<\/a> borrowers from Sept. 30 to the end of the year.<\/p>\n

The payment\u2014which was authorized by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and was $600 per week on top of existing unemployment benefits\u2014expired on July 31. The White House and the Democrats failed to reach a deal on extending the payment.<\/p>\n

The White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin started negotiations with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Aug. 1.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt this point, its clear Democrats want to play politics with American jobs,\u201d Meadows<\/a> wrote in a Twitter post right before Trumps press conference. \u201cSince Democrats wont step up and do their job, @realdonaldtrump will do it for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

To workers all over the country: D.C. Democrats may not have your back, but President Trump does.<\/p>\n

There are several areas in which the two sides disagree with each other. The Democrats want a comprehensive stimulus package costing $3.4 trillion, while the White House prefers a smaller bill as the first step in addressing the most important issues, including an extension of enhanced unemployment payments and eviction protections for tenants.<\/p>\n

Pelosi and Schumer also want $915 billion in aid for state and local governments included in the bill, to which the White House offered $150 billion.<\/p>\n

Trump said on Saturday that many requirements from the Democrats are irrelevant to the outbreak, including bailout money for states and local governments, articles to banRead More From Source<\/a>
