Summary of Bill HR 7149

The EASE Act of 2024, also known as Bill 118 hr 7149, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The main goal of this bill is to provide relief to American families and individuals who are struggling financially due to the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
