Trump says he wants to give low- and middle-income Americans a $2,000 tariff rebate, but will the proposal actually come to fruition? And who in Ohio would qualify?

No new federal stimulus checks are authorized for November 2025; Congress has not passed any new legislation, and the IRS has made no confirmation. President Donald Trump has proposed using tariff revenue to pay a dividend of at least $2,000 per person (excluding high-income individuals), but this is currently just a proposal.

A new Senate proposal could raise Social Security checks by $200 a month through mid-2026, giving millions of retirees extra relief from rising costs.
