It makes the politicians look good to the ignorant masses.

It creates green collar jobs that happen to be blue collar jobs with a new dye job - thus helping labor unions.

Raising tax is bad for the economy, so giving a portion back is good. At least for a triffle more we can put our own preferences first. Isn’t this where economy is all about.
As for the package it doesn’t put the slightest dent in a recession if it is due. Fiscal policy just doesn’t work.
