You didn't read very well, here is what you missed, that shows the Democrats could have made the changes using their majority, didn't bother to do it:

"The House tried to pass the $2,000 payments during a pro forma session on Christmas Eve day, a brief meeting of the chamber where typically only a few members attend. Democrats aimed to approve the measure by unanimous consent, which means any one lawmaker can block it.

Rep. Steny Hoyer, D-Md., offered the proposal from the House floor, but was blocked because the measure was not approved by House Minority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif.

Subsequently, Rep. Rob Wittman, R-Va., attempted to get lawmakers to reconsider aspects of the spending bill related to foreign aid. That move was blocked by Democrats."

Ooops!

It was the liberals who screwed up.

Meanwhile the lazy ass Congress shows their contempt of Americans by not doing their job in the first place:

Rage Against The Machine – It’s Simple Really, President Trump Asks Legislative Branch to Use COVID Relief to Help Americans No-One Else

Posted on December 26, 2020 by Sundance

Excerpt:

As noted yesterday, a simple COVID relief bill for American workers is really not a big problem… except it is… because the DC system is not structured around simply helping Americans first. The legislative machinery is owned by K-Street and multinationals who pay for the outcomes they alone create.
A people’s president, Donald Trump, cuts through the chaff and countermeasures:

(snip)


President Trump wants congress to re-write the $900 billion COVID bill to provide $2,000 per person instead of $600 per person. In essence Trump is asking for a stand alone COVID relief bill for $2k/person, then drop the $600/person payment out of the pork-laden COVID relief bill and start that economic relief bill over.

This is not a hard issue to resolve. The only reason UniParty congress is fighting Trump is because the lobbyist and foreign government bribes are part of the $900 billion and will not pass the scrutiny of public opinion if standing alone. Once you see the strings on the marionettes you can never return to that moment in time when you did not see them.

Heavy sigh…

Your citation says the House hasn't passed a new bill yet ... and that the Senate hasn't even taken it up ... so the answer to S'Tommy's question is "no" ...

At this point it is almost up to trump. He never vetoed the bill passed by congress and the 116th congress ends January 3rd and without veto there is nothing to override. 10 days from December 21, the day it passed takes it up to December 31. 10 days if congress not in session makes a pocket veto and any bill if still not settled before 116th congress ends, starts all over in the House of Representatives. If I have this wrong or not properly understood, please let me know.

Really? What do you think the article was saying Democrats were trying to do?

Is this better?

Republicans block Democratic effort to increase direct checks to $2,000

Republicans blocked a request by Democrats to pass the bill by unanimous consent.

www.cbsnews.com

House Republicans on Thursday blocked a bill by Democrats to provide direct checks of $2,000 to individuals on Thursday, after President Trump called on Congress to amend a newly passed coronavirus relief bill to increase direct payments to $2,000, with $4,000 for a couple. House Republicans blocked the proposal, which Democrats tried to pass by unanimous consent, but Speaker Nancy Pelosi said there will be a full House vote on the measure next week.

except the spending bill if not passed is the government SHUT DOWN, no money to get vaccines to states, no money to states for administering the vaccines, no further state testing for covid to track the new strain..... etc etc etc.... let alone gvt shut downs costing us billions to shut down and to reopen..... THAT'S a WASTE of money....

And these programs he says should be cut, were actually requests in the whitehouse budget, to be passed in the whitehouse part of negotiations.

Meadows and Minuchin HAD TO HAVE UPDATED Trump on these measures a month ago.

WHERE WAS HE THEN?

It already is. One of the GOP dingbats has had ads taking credit for the stimulus running for days. The unsigned stimulus that nobody is getting.

Dude looks like a total fool.

I's not almost up to Trump. It's entirely in his court. Congress is in recess and it will not meet again till Jan 6th. Of course there could be an emergency session called but that would not happen unless the leadership knew that they had legislation that was likely to pass.
