Clergy, Labor & Community Leaders were all urging the passage of the American Rescue Plan Act direct relief package that includes $5 million in targeted financial assistance for St. Louis working families. And on Tuesday night, the St. Louis Board of Aldermen gave initial approval for that relief package, which includes the $5 million in direct financial assistance. Mayor Tishaura Jones says she is proud that the St. Louis Board of Aldermen passed her American Rescue Plan Act direct relief proposal to boost vaccination rates, keep families in their homes and improve public safety by addressing the root causes of crime. The $163 million American Rescue Plan Act includes providing St. Louis families with one-time payments of $500.
