Americans To Receive Stimulus Checks Of $400 Through Lottery System

Hundreds of residents were chosen using a lottery system and will get a stimulus check of $400 per month. In Chelsea, Massachusetts, the Chelsea Eats program pays 738 people every month. To help families with low incomes with the rising cost of living, including the price of groceries and utilities, money has been allocated.
