Plenty of people are mentioning it, it's all over the news.

There was also plenty given to Republicans, when in the Senate they managed to include yet another tax giveaway costing $90 billion for 2020 alone. The benefits will almost entirely be received by millionaires and billionaires.

Personally I see it hard for Democrats to want to just up the amount in the fund without a strategy for distribution. Add in the executive branch immediately doing everything they can to undermine congressional and Inspector General oversight over these funds, we will have a repeat of TARP where large corporations were able to find all the bailouts they needed while SMBs were hung out to dry.
