WASHINGTON — President Trump has once mentioned his idea of sending out stimulus checks to Americans.

In an with One America News Thursday, he was asked what he would do with the revenues from higher tariffs on imported goods.

Trump first said they’re looking at “paying down debt.” He then added they also may issue a stimulus as a result.

"We’ll pay back debt, but we also might make a distribution to the people, almost like a dividend to the people of America,” he said.

When questioned about how much the checks would be, Trump said "maybe $1,000 to $2,000."

The comments were made in the midst of the government shutdown, with federal employee layoffs and project cuts looming should it continue.

Will there be a 2025 stimulus check?
