What happened
President Donald Trump said his administration will send $500 rebate checks starting in October to nearly 1 million Affordable Care Act enrollees in 30 states that use Healthcare.govHealthcare.govU.S. government healthcare exchange website, saying they were overcharged through exchange fees during the Biden administration. The announcement came a day after Trump told Republicans at a Dallas midterm convention that Americans would receive $5,000 “dividend” checks if the GOP wins the November midterms. Members of Congress and economists questioned the $5,000 proposal, which would require congressional approval, while a Senate Republican began preparing legislation with eligibility limits.
