Political Group Survey: the PVS survey question on coronavirus relief spending
Source: PVS Survey
Project Vote Smart inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Economy: Do you support providing financial relief to businesses AND/OR corporations negatively impacted by the state of national emergency for COVID-19?'
PVS self-description: "The Political Courage Test provides voters with positions on key issues. Historically, candidates have failed to complete our test due to the advice they receive from their advisors and out of fear of negative attack ads."
Also see the PVS survey question on coronavirus relief spending as a related survey question; the 2018 PVS survey question on federal stimulus from a similar survey question; and the 2018 CC survey question on Balanced Budget Amendment.
