This bill provided $1.9 trillion in emergency assistance to the American people during the unprecedented COVID-19 crisis. The American Rescue Plan stabilized state and local governments, helped reopen public schools safely, funded distribution of the new COVID-19 vaccine and related supplies, and supported transportation systems.
Importantly, the bill also provided relief for multiemployer pension plans, fully subsidized COBRA health insurance for laid-off workers and continued unemployment insurance benefits, including for workers not normally covered under state programs, such as gig workers and independent contractors. This bill passed the House on Feb. 27, 2021.
