Thursday, during Fox News Channel's coverage of the Republican National Convention in Dallas, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) weighed in on President Donald Trump's proposed $5,000 dividend payment to Americans.
Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas), a prominent conservative voice in the Senate GOP conference, says he’s willing to support President Trump’s proposal to give $5,000 dividend payments to U.S. adults provided that they are structured as tax refunds and go to people who work and pay taxes.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) declined Thursday to endorse President Donald Trump's proposed $5,000 dividend to American adults as written, saying he could back it only if it is reworked into a tax refund for working taxpayers.
