Leaders announce deal on economic stimulus package
Congressional leaders announced a deal with the White House Thursday on an economic stimulus package that would give most tax filers refunds of $600 to $1,200, and more if they have children.
The White House has announced that the USD 819 billion mega economic stimulus package, passed by the House of Representatives amid opposition from Republicans, is on course and showed confidence it would be signed into law before February 16, a deadline set by president Barack Obama.
