Captcha.
Incredible chart from the US Census:
The "stimulus checks" in 2020 lifted 11.7 million people out of poverty.
Enhanced unemployment aid lifted 5.5 million people out of poverty.

Another incredible chart.
Every age, race/ethnicity, and educational level saw a decline in poverty in 2020, largely due to gov't aid payments.
Really big declines in poverty for:
Single moms
African Americans
Hispanic Americans
Americans w/No HS degree
Those not working
