Mnuchin confirms plan for $1,000 cash payments to all Americans
The White House's coronavirus stimulus plan could see every American get two $1,000 checks from the government within nine weeks, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said Thursday.
"This is an unprecedented situation, where for good reason the government has instructed major parts of the economy to close down so that we can win this fight against this virus," he said in an appearance on Fox Business.
"While we're doing that, we understand there are impacts on hard-working Americans, and the president is determined to support them," he added.
The $1 trillion package the White House and Senate Republicans plan on presenting would provide every adult American with a $1,000 check, plus another $500 for each child. A family with two parents and two children, for example, would get $3,000.
