His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

A nonprofit group, the WeChat Users Alliance, filed a suit against the Trump administration Friday to halt his ban, calling it a violation of constitutional rights and claiming it targets an oft-marginalized group, \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/policy/technology/513262-wechat-users-sue-to-block-trump-ban-on-chinese-app\">according to The Hill\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Certainly, WeChat has drawn critique from even its own community, having censored messages in China — including reportedly suppressing political speech and blocking keywords surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Chinese Progressive Association, grassroots organizers and politicians agree that in San Francisco, a ban on WeChat would hamper a major communication tool within the monolingual Chinese community, particularly in one of the city’s most cherished neighborhoods: Chinatown.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Pillar of the Community\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>San Francisco’s Chinese community reads, watches and listens to the news in their own language and dialects: newspapers like Sing Tao Daily and the World Journal, or broadcast entities like Sing Tao Chinese Radio and TV station KTSF.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because Chinatown is often a key first stop for recent Chinese immigrants who may not know English, those media outlets are depended on to inform a community who don’t have access to the San Francisco Chronicle, the Examiner or even KQED, for that matter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Chinese media, I think not just in San Francisco, but in the Bay Area, I think plays a crucial role in how the monolingual immigrant community gets their information,” said Malcolm Yeung, executive director of the nonprofit Chinatown Community Development Center. “For as long as I’ve worked in the community, Chinese media in some form or another has been the primary source of information for folks in the Chinese monolingual community in particular.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11835496\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11835496\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-800x1422.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1422\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-800x1422.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-1020x1813.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-160x284.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-864x1536.jpg 864w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Chinese Progressive Association’s staff uses WeChat’s voice memo function to directly message a Single Room Occupancy resident, Ah Ying, to bring their family to the Veritas rent passthrough march.

(WeChat Screenshot)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The monolingual and bilingual Chinese community, then, has its own media ecosystem. But in recent years, WeChat has emerged as its own pillar in that ecosystem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After its launch in 2010, it started as a way for people to affordably communicate across the world, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfweekly.com/news/trumps-wechat-ban-threatens-lifeline-for-chinese-diaspora/\">expanding in popularity in the Chinese community locally and in similar communities across the country\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that popularity also fed the platform’s growth in information-sharing, a change that paralleled new features in the app, including a Facebook-like “timeline.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two candidates competing to represent San Francisco’s Richmond District on the Board of Supervisors, Marjan Philhour and Connie Chan, both said they utilize WeChat to reach out to monolingual Chinese voters, an important community group in their campaigns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In campaigning, especially since it is not safe to proactively go out and meet people face to face, WeChat is one place to organize and meet the community where they are,” Philhour said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of that campaigning encompasses housing rights. Chan said her campaign often sends notifications about the city and state’s eviction moratoriums to voters on WeChat. “That’s been critical to a lot of new immigrants who are actually still fluent in Chinese,” no matter how long they’ve been here, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mason Lee, a Chinese community liaison from San Francisco Mayor London Breed’s office, said more members of the Chinese community reach out to Breed on WeChat than by phone or email. The Mayor’s office often uses WeChat as a resource for small businesses or informing tenants about their rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The platform’s growth is still historically new and has caught some off guard. Yeung said his organization, CCDC, recently completed a survey of residents in the Single Room Occupancy developments they operate. Other SRO hotels often house vulnerable, low-income families who live in single rooms but use shared kitchens and bathrooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We always like to ask, ‘Where do you get your source of information?’ And for SRO families, it was shocking to me that more than half relied on WeChat for information, you know, versus Chinese media, which really kind of shows you the evolution and growth of the platform in our community,” Yeung said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And even as the platform grew as a news source, it grew as an organizing source as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Organizing for Themselves\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Since 1972, the Chinese Progressive Association has organized its community in Chinatown, and beyond, to push for better wages, protect tenants and advocate for themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nowadays, much of that organizing gets off the ground on WeChat. KC Ho, a community organizer at the Chinese Progressive Association, said the organization’s dependence on WeChat goes beyond the occasional, simple two-way message.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Over the years we’ve also grown our groups, and WeChat groups associated with us,” Ho said. There are groups, within groups, within groups — all communicating to harness tenants’ rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chinese Progressive Association organizes 50 single room occupancy hotels in Chinatown, which each can house a dozen living units, or more than a hundred. They host group chats between tenants who are organizing their own buildings, and group chats with tenants across each building, too. The uses range from the mundane — like settling arguments with landlords — to the eventful, like the aforementioned rent hike protest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So why not just use a new app?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many people those organizations are reaching on WeChat are seniors who are slow to adopt new technology, organizers told KQED. So while adopting a new platform might happen, reaching wider adoption could potentially take years. Perhaps most importantly, the growth of WeChat in organizing was predicated on its use in people’s personal lives, not the other way around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-conversation=\"none\">\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/hashtag/Veritas?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Veritas\u003c/a> protest w/ tenant community in \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/hashtag/SanFrancisco?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#SanFrancisco\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://t.co/XPeIRaA6v2\">pic.twitter.com/XPeIRaA6v2\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Council of Community Housing Organizations (@SF_CCHO) \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SF_CCHO/status/1176591472247705601?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 24, 2019\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Organizers rely on it so heavily, “It would be pretty devastating losing WeChat,” Ho said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many older adults they work with don’t use Facebook because they use WeChat, she said, and younger members they organize “don’t care about Facebook.”\u003cbr>\n[aside tag=\"tenants-rights\" label=\"related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Angela Zhou is one of those community members who organize using WeChat for the Chinese Progressive Association.

A nonprofit group, the WeChat Users Alliance, filed a suit against the Trump administration Friday to halt his ban, calling it a violation of constitutional rights and claiming it targets an oft-marginalized group, \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/policy/technology/513262-wechat-users-sue-to-block-trump-ban-on-chinese-app\">according to The Hill\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Certainly, WeChat has drawn critique from even its own community, having censored messages in China — including reportedly suppressing political speech and blocking keywords surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Chinese Progressive Association, grassroots organizers and politicians agree that in San Francisco, a ban on WeChat would hamper a major communication tool within the monolingual Chinese community, particularly in one of the city’s most cherished neighborhoods: Chinatown.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Pillar of the Community\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>San Francisco’s Chinese community reads, watches and listens to the news in their own language and dialects: newspapers like Sing Tao Daily and the World Journal, or broadcast entities like Sing Tao Chinese Radio and TV station KTSF.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because Chinatown is often a key first stop for recent Chinese immigrants who may not know English, those media outlets are depended on to inform a community who don’t have access to the San Francisco Chronicle, the Examiner or even KQED, for that matter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Chinese media, I think not just in San Francisco, but in the Bay Area, I think plays a crucial role in how the monolingual immigrant community gets their information,” said Malcolm Yeung, executive director of the nonprofit Chinatown Community Development Center. “For as long as I’ve worked in the community, Chinese media in some form or another has been the primary source of information for folks in the Chinese monolingual community in particular.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11835496\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11835496\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-800x1422.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1422\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-800x1422.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-1020x1813.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-160x284.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1-864x1536.jpg 864w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/WeChatVeritas1-1.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Chinese Progressive Association’s staff uses WeChat’s voice memo function to directly message a Single Room Occupancy resident, Ah Ying, to bring their family to the Veritas rent passthrough march. The image in the chat is the Housing Rights Committee’s march flyer, in Chinese. (WeChat Screenshot)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The monolingual and bilingual Chinese community, then, has its own media ecosystem. But in recent years, WeChat has emerged as its own pillar in that ecosystem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After its launch in 2010, it started as a way for people to affordably communicate across the world, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfweekly.com/news/trumps-wechat-ban-threatens-lifeline-for-chinese-diaspora/\">expanding in popularity in the Chinese community locally and in similar communities across the country\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that popularity also fed the platform’s growth in information-sharing, a change that paralleled new features in the app, including a Facebook-like “timeline.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two candidates competing to represent San Francisco’s Richmond District on the Board of Supervisors, Marjan Philhour and Connie Chan, both said they utilize WeChat to reach out to monolingual Chinese voters, an important community group in their campaigns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In campaigning, especially since it is not safe to proactively go out and meet people face to face, WeChat is one place to organize and meet the community where they are,” Philhour said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of that campaigning encompasses housing rights. Chan said her campaign often sends notifications about the city and state’s eviction moratoriums to voters on WeChat. “That’s been critical to a lot of new immigrants who are actually still fluent in Chinese,” no matter how long they’ve been here, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mason Lee, a Chinese community liaison from San Francisco Mayor London Breed’s office, said more members of the Chinese community reach out to Breed on WeChat than by phone or email. The Mayor’s office often uses WeChat as a resource for small businesses or informing tenants about their rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The platform’s growth is still historically new and has caught some off guard. Yeung said his organization, CCDC, recently completed a survey of residents in the Single Room Occupancy developments they operate. Other SRO hotels often house vulnerable, low-income families who live in single rooms but use shared kitchens and bathrooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We always like to ask, ‘Where do you get your source of information?’ And for SRO families, it was shocking to me that more than half relied on WeChat for information, you know, versus Chinese media, which really kind of shows you the evolution and growth of the platform in our community,” Yeung said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And even as the platform grew as a news source, it grew as an organizing source as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Organizing for Themselves\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Since 1972, the Chinese Progressive Association has organized its community in Chinatown, and beyond, to push for better wages, protect tenants and advocate for themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nowadays, much of that organizing gets off the ground on WeChat. KC Ho, a community organizer at the Chinese Progressive Association, said the organization’s dependence on WeChat goes beyond the occasional, simple two-way message.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Over the years we’ve also grown our groups, and WeChat groups associated with us,” Ho said. There are groups, within groups, within groups — all communicating to harness tenants’ rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chinese Progressive Association organizes 50 single room occupancy hotels in Chinatown, which each can house a dozen living units, or more than a hundred. They host group chats between tenants who are organizing their own buildings, and group chats with tenants across each building, too. The uses range from the mundane — like settling arguments with landlords — to the eventful, like the aforementioned rent hike protest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So why not just use a new app?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many people those organizations are reaching on WeChat are seniors who are slow to adopt new technology, organizers told KQED. So while adopting a new platform might happen, reaching wider adoption could potentially take years. Perhaps most importantly, the growth of WeChat in organizing was predicated on its use in people’s personal lives, not the other way around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-conversation=\"none\">\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/hashtag/Veritas?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Veritas\u003c/a> protest w/ tenant community in \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/hashtag/SanFrancisco?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#SanFrancisco\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://t.co/XPeIRaA6v2\">pic.twitter.com/XPeIRaA6v2\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Council of Community Housing Organizations (@SF_CCHO) \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SF_CCHO/status/1176591472247705601?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 24, 2019\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Organizers rely on it so heavily, “It would be pretty devastating losing WeChat,” Ho said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many older adults they work with don’t use Facebook because they use WeChat, she said, and younger members they organize “don’t care about Facebook.”\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"labelTerm": {},
"content": "\u003cp>Seizing the power of his podium and his pen, President Trump on Saturday bypassed the nation’s lawmakers as he claimed the authority to defer payroll taxes and replace an expired unemployment benefit with a lower amount after negotiations with Congress on a new coronavirus rescue package collapsed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At his private country club in Bedminster, New Jersey, Trump signed executive orders to act where Congress hasn’t. Not only has the pandemic undermined the economy and upended American lives, it has imperiled the president’s November reelection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps most crucially, Trump moved to continue paying a supplemental federal unemployment benefit for millions of Americans out of work during the outbreak. However, his order called for up to $400 payments each week, one-third less than the $600 people had been receiving. Congress allowed those higher payments to lapse on Aug. 1, and negotiations to extend them have been mired in partisan gridlock, with the White House and Democrats miles apart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Democratic congressional leaders Trump criticized and insulted with nicknames in remarks ahead of signing the orders, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, dismissed Trump’s actions as “meager” in the face of economic and health crises facing Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The executive orders could face legal challenges questioning the president’s authority to spend taxpayer dollars without the express approval of Congress. Trump largely stayed on the sidelines during the administration’s negotiations with congressional leaders, leaving the talks on his side to chief of staff Mark Meadows and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s embrace of executive actions to sidestep Congress runs in sharp contrast to his criticism of former President Barack Obama’s use of executive orders on a more limited basis. And the president’s step-back from talks with Congress breaks with his self-assured negotiating skills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, Trump, who has not spoken with Pelosi since last year, sought to play the role of election-year savior, with the $400 weekly assistance, as well as a deferral of payroll tax and federal student loan payments and the continuation of a freeze on some evictions during the crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s $400 a week, and we’re doing it without the Democrats,” Trump said, asking states to cover 25% of the cost. Trump is seeking to set aside $44 billion in previously approved disaster aid to help states maintain supplemental pandemic jobless benefits, but Trump said it would be up to states to determine how much, if any of it, to fund, so the benefits could be smaller still.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/SpeakerPelosi/status/1292239478598373382\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many states have been facing budget shortfalls due to the coronavirus pandemic and would have difficulty assuming the new obligation. The previous unemployment benefit was fully funded by Washington.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president had said at his club on Friday night that “if Democrats continue to hold this critical relief hostage I will act under my authority as president to get Americans the relief they need.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats had said they would lower their spending demands from $3.4 trillion to $2 trillion but said the White House needed to increase their offer. Republicans have proposed a $1 trillion plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House aides have watched the talks break down with apprehension, fearful that failure to close a deal could further damage an economic recovery already showing signs of slowing down. Friday’s jobs report, though it beat expectations, was smaller than the past two months, in part because a resurgence of the virus has led to states rolling back their reopenings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president’s team believes the economy needs to stabilize and show signs of growth for him to have any chance at winning reelection. Aides were hoping to frame the expected executive orders as a sign that Trump was taking action in a time of crisis. But it also would reinforce the view that the president, who took office declaring he was a dealmaker, was unable to steer the process to an agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump said Saturday the orders “will take care of pretty much this entire situation, as we know it.” But they are far smaller in scope than congressional legislation, and even aides acknowledged they didn’t meet all needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is not a perfect answer — we’ll be the first ones to say that,” Meadows said Friday as talks broke down. “But it is all that we can do and all the president can do within the confines of his executive power, and we’re going to encourage him to do it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump said the employee portion of the payroll tax would be deferred from Aug. 1 through the end of the year. The move would not directly aid unemployed workers, who do not pay the tax when they are jobless, and employees will need to repay the federal government eventually without an act of Congress, where there is bipartisan opposition on Capitol Hill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In essence, the deferral is an interest-free loan that would have to be repaid. Trump said he’ll try to get lawmakers to extend it, and the timing would line up with a post-election lame-duck session in which Congress will try to pass government funding bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I win, I may extend and terminate,” Trump said, repeating a longtime goal but remaining silent on how he’d fund the Medicare and Social Security benefits that the 7% tax on employee income covers. Employers also pay 7.65% of their payrolls into the funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, issued a statement saying he supported Trump “exploring his options to get unemployment benefits and other relief to the people who need them the most.” Like Trump, McConnell accused Democrats of using the coronavirus package negotiations to pursue other goals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats said they were not favorably impressed by Trump’s orders. In a joint statement, Pelosi and Schumer said that “these policy announcements provide little real help to families.” They added: “Democrats repeat our call to Republicans to return to the table, meet us halfway and work together to deliver immediate relief to the American people.

Not only has the pandemic undermined the economy and upended American lives, it has imperiled the president’s November reelection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps most crucially, Trump moved to continue paying a supplemental federal unemployment benefit for millions of Americans out of work during the outbreak. However, his order called for up to $400 payments each week, one-third less than the $600 people had been receiving. Congress allowed those higher payments to lapse on Aug. 1, and negotiations to extend them have been mired in partisan gridlock, with the White House and Democrats miles apart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Democratic congressional leaders Trump criticized and insulted with nicknames in remarks ahead of signing the orders, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, dismissed Trump’s actions as “meager” in the face of economic and health crises facing Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The executive orders could face legal challenges questioning the president’s authority to spend taxpayer dollars without the express approval of Congress. Trump largely stayed on the sidelines during the administration’s negotiations with congressional leaders, leaving the talks on his side to chief of staff Mark Meadows and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And the president’s step-back from talks with Congress breaks with his self-assured negotiating skills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, Trump, who has not spoken with Pelosi since last year, sought to play the role of election-year savior, with the $400 weekly assistance, as well as a deferral of payroll tax and federal student loan payments and the continuation of a freeze on some evictions during the crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s $400 a week, and we’re doing it without the Democrats,” Trump said, asking states to cover 25% of the cost. Trump is seeking to set aside $44 billion in previously approved disaster aid to help states maintain supplemental pandemic jobless benefits, but Trump said it would be up to states to determine how much, if any of it, to fund, so the benefits could be smaller still.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The previous unemployment benefit was fully funded by Washington.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president had said at his club on Friday night that “if Democrats continue to hold this critical relief hostage I will act under my authority as president to get Americans the relief they need.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats had said they would lower their spending demands from $3.4 trillion to $2 trillion but said the White House needed to increase their offer. Republicans have proposed a $1 trillion plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House aides have watched the talks break down with apprehension, fearful that failure to close a deal could further damage an economic recovery already showing signs of slowing down. Friday’s jobs report, though it beat expectations, was smaller than the past two months, in part because a resurgence of the virus has led to states rolling back their reopenings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president’s team believes the economy needs to stabilize and show signs of growth for him to have any chance at winning reelection. Aides were hoping to frame the expected executive orders as a sign that Trump was taking action in a time of crisis. But it also would reinforce the view that the president, who took office declaring he was a dealmaker, was unable to steer the process to an agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump said Saturday the orders “will take care of pretty much this entire situation, as we know it.” But they are far smaller in scope than congressional legislation, and even aides acknowledged they didn’t meet all needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is not a perfect answer — we’ll be the first ones to say that,” Meadows said Friday as talks broke down. “But it is all that we can do and all the president can do within the confines of his executive power, and we’re going to encourage him to do it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump said the employee portion of the payroll tax would be deferred from Aug. 1 through the end of the year. The move would not directly aid unemployed workers, who do not pay the tax when they are jobless, and employees will need to repay the federal government eventually without an act of Congress, where there is bipartisan opposition on Capitol Hill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In essence, the deferral is an interest-free loan that would have to be repaid. Trump said he’ll try to get lawmakers to extend it, and the timing would line up with a post-election lame-duck session in which Congress will try to pass government funding bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I win, I may extend and terminate,” Trump said, repeating a longtime goal but remaining silent on how he’d fund the Medicare and Social Security benefits that the 7% tax on employee income covers. Employers also pay 7.65% of their payrolls into the funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, issued a statement saying he supported Trump “exploring his options to get unemployment benefits and other relief to the people who need them the most.” Like Trump, McConnell accused Democrats of using the coronavirus package negotiations to pursue other goals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats said they were not favorably impressed by Trump’s orders. In a joint statement, Pelosi and Schumer said that “these policy announcements provide little real help to families.” They added: “Democrats repeat our call to Republicans to return to the table, meet us halfway and work together to deliver immediate relief to the American people. Lives are being lost, and time is of the essence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Democratic chairman of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee, Rep. Richard E. Neal of Massachusetts, accused Trump of “brazenly circumventing Congress to institute tax policy that destabilizes Social Security.” Also citing a threat to Medicare funding by Trump’s action, Neal said, “This decree is a poorly disguised first step in an effort to fully dismantle these vital programs by executive fiat.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic Sen.
