Why are these bills 5000 page turds with all kinds of legal garbage thrown in? I wish Congress would pass a 1 paragraph bill that does one thing: say $1000 bucks to everyone making under $75k for 3 months and dare people to vote against or veto it.

> dare people to vote against or veto it.

Why vote against it or veto when you can just never bring it to a vote?

This one is actually linked from TFA and is very short and readable as a pdf.

Unfortunately, it's packaged as part of an omnibus bill.

Basically some congresspeople wanted to pass the $600 stimulus check, and others bundled on the CASE Act with it. And this will pass because anyone opposing it "doesn't love America".
