Trump Says He Is Considering Giving Americans $2,000 Tariff Stimulus Checks

The proposal aims to distribute part of the projected $400 billion annual tariff revenue directly to Americans to boost economic activity and market liquidity, experts say.

  • President Donald Trump floated a plan to send $1,000 to $2,000 checks to Americans funded by tariff revenues during an interview last week on One America News Network.
  • Tariffs imposed since January are projected to generate more than $400 billion a year, forming the revenue base for President Donald Trump's proposal, Axios reports.
  • Markets reacted as experts predicted fresh liquidity for Bitcoin and altcoins, with analysts from Bitfinex and Binance saying even an announcement could lift prices, while Peter Zimmerman estimated a 3.8% rise in trade volume.
  • Congress must approve any distribution of tariff proceeds, a federal appeals court ruled tariff authority belongs to Congress, the administration warned refunds may be required, and the Supreme Court will hear arguments next month.
  • Earlier this year, Trump said, `'We’re going to do something, we’re looking at something. Because people have allowed the debt to go crazy,'` while $214.9 billion in tariff revenue was collected so far in 2025.
