As the coronavirus pandemic causes state officials to tighten up restrictions and lock down businesses, many are itching for additional aid from the government.
But the recently approved relief package, with a proposed $600 stimulus check included, isn’t enough for middle-class Americans and small business owners who are in dire need of help, Illinois restaurant owner Jeff Buckler told "Fox & Friends Weekend" on Sunday. "They’re going to starve to death," he said. "They’re talking about a $600 stimulus check that won’t even pay a month’s rent.
People have car payments, utility bills and all that stuff. Food to put on the table for their kids." The Lil Buford's Bar & Grill owner said this limited support is going to drive restaurant workers.
