U.S. Treasury Secretary Discusses Potential Tariff Dividend Proposal

According to PANews, U.S. Treasury Secretary Besent stated that President Donald Trump has proposed a potential tariff 'dividend' of at least $2,000 for Americans. This idea could be realized through tax reduction measures included in his signature economic policy bill passed earlier this year. Besent made these remarks during an appearance on ABC's This Week program when asked about a social media post by President Trump earlier on Sunday. In the post, Trump mocked those opposing tariffs and mentioned the possibility of distributing at least $2,000 to each person, excluding high-income individuals.
