Americans are spending coronavirus checks on rent and groceries
When Jessica Rosner saw the $1,200
coronavirus relief payment from the U.S. government was
deposited into her bank account Wednesday morning, the
furloughed behavioral therapist knew immediately how she would
spend the cash.
The unemployment benefits she applied for two weeks ago have
yet to come through. And Rosner, 23, who lives near Fort
Lauderdale, Florida, still owed nearly $1,500 for April’s rent
and about $200 for car insurance.
