[Republican Lawmakers Lukewarm on Trump's $2,000 'Tariff Dividend' Plan] Trump proposed a plan to distribute $2,000 to low- and middle-income households, funded by tariff revenues. However, several Republican lawmakers have expressed reservations, questioning whether the plan could gain congressional approval. Lawmakers are more inclined to use tariff revenues to reduce the fiscal deficit, arguing that U.S. public debt is nearing historic highs and that fiscal discipline should be prioritized. Additionally, some lawmakers are considering using the tariff revenues to extend subsidies under the Affordable Care Act, which are set to expire on December 31. Without an extension, millions of Americans could face significant increases in insurance premiums.
