Imagine by taking a family off of assistance because a parent is working again, restarting an income, sales, and family purchasing begins. Federal and local assitance is reduced / eliminated in that case. It is probably a net game.
There is probably some reason why it would not work but it has to be better and perhaps more cost effective than extending unemployment benefits as stimulus.

For that reason alone the House will never support it
