WASHINGTON - Since early in the coronavirus pandemic, the federal government has added $600 to unemployment checks.
The weekly boost in aid that millions of people have received is set to expire July 31 — but due to the way states process unemployment payments, the cutoff was effectively on July 25.The weekly $600 payments were the last major source of economic help from the $2 trillion CARES Act that Congress passed in March.
