$1.9tn US stimulus comes into force

Available for over a year

With Joe Biden's $1.9tn stimulus package signed into law, we consider its economic impact. Actor Corey Mach talks us through his experience of the pandemic and what sort of difference the new law will make to him. And the BBC's Michelle Fleury explains what the American Rescue Plan is designed to achieve. Also in the programme, the BBC's Elizabeth Hotson examines the business opportunities that have emerged for those seeking to make the most of people being stuck at home and bored during the lockdowns of the past year. Plus, our regular workplace commentator, Stephanie Hare, explores how when faced with a workplace obstacle, a good pep talk can sometimes help us to move forwards.
