President Donald Trump says Americans won’t have to wait much longer to see direct benefits from his tariff policies. In new comments made on Monday, President Trump revealed that the administration expects to begin issuing “tariff dividend checks” as early as the middle of next year, delivering thousands of dollars to middle and moderate income households.
During remarks, Trump detailed how the United States has collected “hundreds of millions of dollars in tariff money,” which he argues has both strengthened American industry and created a surplus that can now be returned directly to taxpayers.
“We’re going to be issuing dividends later on, somewhere prior to, probably in the middle of next year, a little bit later than that, of thousands of dollars for individuals of moderate income, middle income. We’re going to pay down debt. We have a lot of money from tariffs,” Trump said.
