Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent revealed that President Trumps proposed $2,000 tariff checks would target working families, with income limits yet to be disclosed. This plan, aimed at reducing national debt, faces uncertainty due to lack of clarity on eligibility and cost.

Bessent hinted that these dividends could come in various forms, including tax decreases, adding to the complexity of the proposal.
