there is stuff happening underground.
In the waning hours of 2020, both houses of Congress passed The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021.

Former President Trump signed the bill into existence on December 27, 2020, and it took effect on January 1, 2021.

The Act is a $2.3 trillion spending bill that combines $900 billion of COVID-19 stimulus relief with $1.4 trillion earmarked to keep government doors open until the next budget is passed.
