"He is the President, and I think it's a terrific symbol to the American public"
The idea of putting President Donald Trump’s signature on the $1200 stimulus checks sent out to Americans to ease the economic effects of the coronavirus pandemic was Steve Mnuchin’s idea, the treasury secretary said Sunday morning on CNN.
Millions of Americans have already started receiving payments from the U.S. government this week through the CARES Act, the $2.2 trillion dollar stimulus package Congress passed to support the country’s economy during the pandemic. “The checks have not gone out yet,” Mnuchin said on CNN, adding that the Trump administration was hoping more people would “go to IRS.gov” and set up a way to get the money via direct deposit, which he said is “much safer.”
