In Signing the COVID-19 Relief Bill, President Trump Redlines Bill Requesting an Increase in Benefits to $2000, Section 230 Terminated or Revised and an Investigation Into Voter Fraud Be Performed

President Trump signed the COVID-19 Stimulus Relief Bill last night as we reported earlier:

President Trump Signs $900 Billion Covid-19 Stimulus Relief Bill

As the news of the signing comes to light, we see that the President used a decades-old piece of legislation to make edits to the bill and require additional actions from Congress.

The President released a statement along with the signing of the bill [emphasis ours]:

As President, I have told Congress that I want far less wasteful spending and more money going to the American people in the form of $2,000 checks per adult and $600 per child.

As President I am demanding many rescissions under the Impoundment Control Act of 1974. The Act provides that, “whenever the President determines that all or part of any budget authority will not be required to carry out the full objectives or scope of programs for which it is provided, or that such budget authority should be rescinded for fiscal policy or other reasons (including termination of authorized projects or activities for which budget authority has been provided), the President shall transmit to both Houses of Congress a special message” describing the amount to be reserved, the relevant accounts, the reasons for the rescission, and the economic effects of the rescission. 2 U.S.C. § 683.

I will sign the Omnibus and Covid package with a strong message that makes clear to Congress that wasteful items need to be removed. I will send back to Congress a redlined version, item by item, accompanied by the formal rescission request to Congress insisting that those funds be removed from the bill.

I am signing this bill to restore unemployment benefits, stop evictions, provide rental assistance, add money for PPP, return our airline workers back to work, add substantially more money for vaccine distribution, and much more.

On Monday the House will vote to increase payments to individuals from $600 to $2,000. Therefore, a family of four would receive $5,200. Additionally, Congress has promised that Section 230, which so unfairly benefits Big Tech at the expense of the American people, will be reviewed and either be terminated or substantially reformed.

Likewise, the House and Senate have agreed to focus strongly on the very substantial voter fraud which took place in the November 3 Presidential election.

The Senate will start the process for a vote that increases checks to $2,000, repeals Section 230, and starts an investigation into voter fraud.

Big Tech must not get protections of Section 230!

Voter Fraud must be fixed!

Much more money is coming. I will never give up my fight for the American people!

As the Conservative Treehouse noted, it is questionable if Congress will do anything with the President's requests.

The bill had a veto-proof majority in both the House and Senate so this was one opportunity for the President to highlight needed changes to the garbage bill.
