Treasury orders Trump’s name printed on stimulus checks, will delay delivery

The Treasury Department has ordered President Trump’s name printed on stimulus checks the Internal Revenue Service is rushing to send to tens of millions of Americans, a process that could slow their delivery by a few days, senior IRS officials said.

The unprecedented decision, finalized late Monday, means that when recipients open the $1,200 paper checks the IRS is scheduled to begin sending to 70 million Americans in coming days, “President Donald J. Trump” will appear on the left side of the payment.

It will be the first time a president’s name appears on an IRS disbursement, whether a routine refund or one of the handful of checks the government has issued to taxpayers in recent decades either to stimulate a down economy or share the dividends of a strong one.

Treasury officials disputed that the checks would be delayed.

    Just more TEAM FEAR added by this administration in to the existing conflicting stories.

    All we hear being reported, relief money coming from the government, money coming towards small businesses, LA/City and County money coming to unemployed and renters.

    Has anyone seen any deposits?
