The idea that there was a period in time where "women did not work" is flawed. Women have always worked. Domestic labor is a labor that remains uncompensated.

Undocumented workers make up a disproportionate amount of the essential labor force. Restaurant workers, agricultural workers, factory work etc. These workers not covered by stimulus checks. Undocu folk are carrying this nation on their back and will be repaid w/ punishment.
