It’s been less than a month since President Donald Trump signed the last COVID-19 relief bill into law, but President-elect Joe Biden has already released his own spending proposal, a massive $1.9 trillion plan that comes on the heels of an employment report showing that the country’s battered hospitality industry lost 372,000 jobs in December alone.
