It's been a few days since President Trump mentioned that "all Americans" would receive a $2,000 tariff dividend check. We are now learning "all" doesn't necessarily mean "everyone".
Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee are proposing an additional $1,400 in direct payments to individuals, bolstered unemployment benefits and more generous tax breaks for families with children and for lower earners.
President Trump has been pushing to more than triple the $600 payments approved by Congress. The House approved the larger checks, but the issue divides Republicans.
