Third stimulus update: Feds sending Springfield an estimated $90M in COVID relief, Worcester $106M, Boston $400M; here’s how much your town, city may get
Updated Feb 24, 2021;
Massachusetts cities such as Springfield and Worcester may receive more than $90 million through the American Rescue Plan’s $350 billion influx of COVID-19 aid to help state and local governments across the country recover from gutted tax revenues and layoffs brought on by the pandemic.
The state should receive a total of nearly $8.3 billion according to President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion plan, which is likely up for a House vote Friday and Senate vote by mid-March. U.S. Rep. Richard Neal’s office told MassLive Tuesday that Beacon Hill should see about $4.5 billion to help address the virus, while more than $3.7 billion will be spread across local governments throughout Massachusetts.
