H.R. 7295, Student RELIEF Act of 2020

Summary

H. R. 7295, the Student RELIEF Act of 2020, was introduced in the House of Representatives on June 22, 2020, by Rush with named cosponsors and referred to the Committee on Ways and Means. It amends the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to increase the recovery rebates with respect to certain dependents, including students demonstrating significant financial need. Section 2 adds an amount equal to the product of $1,200 multiplied by the number of dependents who are students and whom the Secretary of Education has determined eligible for a Federal Pell Grant. It also makes conforming amendments to section 6428 of the Code.
