How the $2,000 Tariff Dividend Checks Would Work
The administration has offered few operational details about how the tariff rebate program would be structured. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the White House is still exploring potential income eligibility limits.
Bessent indicated that one proposal under discussion would target families earning less than $100,000 per year, although he emphasized that no decision has been made and the plan remains under review.
Analysts estimate that limiting payments to households under that income level would cost approximately $300 billion, according to the Tax Foundation. If distributed more broadly, the amount could significantly exceed available tariff revenues.
During the COVID-era relief bills, a proposal to offer $2,000 stimulus checks was estimated to cost around $464 billion, according to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.

A $2000.00 Stimulus Check would help my family very much.
And kick start the economy, which is badly needed.

Yes we could very much use this refund.
Sadly, the democrats will fight this tooth and nail and whittle it down to nothing solely because it was Trump’s idea and it would make the GOP look good. They can’t stand that and their contempt for the citizens is only slightly less than their contempt for Trump. Any tariff money collected will be feasted on by Congress. We will see breadcrumbs at best.
You do realize that this could be passed without dems. The majority of all offices are Rep. They keep making the uninformed believe it’s dems fault with everything.
I’d very much appreciate this check! It would help my finances! It would be so special that President Trump cares about his citizens!
I hope you’re plans for helping seniors are successful. It’s hard for me to survive on $800.00 SS, and pay for my solar roof. Thank you for being such a loyal President to America!
I think a stimulus check will help people that struggle to make ends meet.
When a politician takes the oath of office and then violent this oath. Can’t this person be prosecuted??? Or is this do I say not as I do government ???
I support you 100+%, President Trump, but I can’t answer your questions bc they always require donations & I don’t have $ anymore to give. Thank you so much for all you & your amazing family give to the rest of us (even those that don’t seem to appreciate your efforts). There will always be those that are never satisfied I suppose no matter what you do!
