CINCINNATI (FOX19) - Issues with the second round of stimulus checks continue to pop up as some people are now learning they will not receive money this time around.
There is an important distinction to make though.
According to the IRS website, those who got money last time, but are now getting a message that says the stimulus is ânot availableâ this time can still get the stimulus money. The issue is they will have to wait when many people need help now.
CHICAGO (WLS) The second stimulus bill passed by Congress Monday night is giving hope for survival to Chicago s live music venues, which have been completely shut down since March.
Many of those business owners are grateful for the stimulus bill, which they hope will keep them afloat until customers and performers can return.
Back when there were concerts, in the days before COVID-19, it was not unusual to see Chance the Rapper on stage or in the crowd at the Tonic Room in Lincoln Park. Tonic Room has been shuttered like the rest of the city s independent music venues, all in danger of closing for good.
