The bill from the "Squad" members is different from a separate bill introduced by Rep. Richard Neal, D-Mass., that would do essentially the same thing. Neal's bill would simply change the numbers in the coronavirus stimulus bill to say $2,000 instead of $600, and would only come into effect if the stimulus and government funding package Congress recently sent to the president is signed into law. The printed legislation was flown to Mar-a-Lago, where Trump is spending Christmas.
The "Squad" bill however is independent of the rest of the stimulus and directly amends the Internal Revenue Code's wording as it stands currently after the stimulus Congress passed earlier this year. Therefore that bill could be enacted on its own.
