President Trump has signed several executive orders on economic relief amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Unemployment recipients will get an additional $400 a week in unemployment benefits. The executive orders will also defer payroll taxes through the end of the year for Americans earning less than $100,000 a year.

The order will also defer student loan payments through the end of the year. Just like the CARES Act, the Eviction moratoriums will remain.
