Governors and even several of the past presidents, seem to think they can just make a law.

On Friday, March 27, the President signed the massive $2 trillion coronavirus Stimulus Bill (the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security [CARES] Act) to provide assistance to workplaces and employees.

Our judge green lighted it and as sheriffs were en route to post, the presiding judge where we live over ruled.

In Iowa, so far, it doesn't look like we will not have a stay at home order longer than the April 30th that Mr President Trump stated yesterday. 

We are lucky that the government stimulus package will help us with the immediate expenses, but that is not all we can do.On our side, we have called the office of the president, our state reps in the Federal government, our state elected officials, even our local officials to add our voice to the effort and push for some relief (soon!).

For those who have requested a letter here goes:Dear President/Govenor/Senator/Congressman/HUD Secretary/Govenor (You Fill in the blank)Thank you for all that you are doing to help citizens and businesses affected by COVID-19.As you are aware, Landlords provide a vital service to many millions of American.   

OK so let's say rent is $1500 and George says he can pay $1300 and Rene says she can pay $900. 

Do you think the President is going to let the fallout of COVID-19 keep him from winning?
