Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi called the decree to extend the economic relief signed by Covid-19 that President Trump signed on August 8 "absurdly unconstitutional".

"The fact that the question of whether or not they are legal still takes time. I agree with Senator (Ben) Sasse, who says they are 'unconstitutional mistakes'," Pelosi said in

President Trump yesterday overtook parliament and asserted his executive power by signing four decrees on Covid-19 relief after Democrats and Republicans failed to reach consensus on the new economic stimulus package.

One of the key decrees will provide an additional $ 400 / week for the US unemployment benefits, less than the $ 600 / week approved earlier.

Another Trump ordinance involves suspending collection of payroll taxes, money used to pay for social security and other federal programs.

In addition, Trump's decrees also prevent tenants from being evicted from federally subsidized rental units and extend the 0% interest rate on federally funded student loans.

A series of questions have been raised about the effectiveness of the decrees Trump has just signed and whether states are available to finance the benefits he proposes.

Since Congress does not allow an additional extension of federal unemployment benefits, states will have to set up a completely new system to provide additional aid, which could take months.

The ordinance that President Trump signed is not an unemployment insurance benefit, so it will not pass the unemployment insurance program established in the states.

Democrats are expected to challenge Trump's executive orders in court.

With the double-digit unemployment rate, business disruption due to social exclusion regulations and the lack of signs of the Covid-19 situation, many Americans now rely on relief measures.
