President Donald Trump reportedly wants his own personal touch on the assistance checks from the $2.2 trillion relief package.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump is pushing for his signature on the $1,200 checks that many individual Americans will soon receive now that the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act has been signed into law.
Don Hammond, a former official at the Treasury Department, told the Wall Street Journal that a disbursing officer’s signature would ordinarily be on the checks.
Under the new law, single American adults making $75,000 or less will receive $1,200, while married couples will receive $2,400 if they earn a combined total of $150,000 or less. The amount gradually decreases for those making over those two income figures.
On Thursday, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said the checks would arrive within three weeks.
Well now, who could have expected that little bit of company branding? With 105,000 cases we are so number one. It wants its name on the virus too.
This is a shrug for me. Most people won’t even get checks, but direct deposit. Of the few that do get checks, how many people actually look at the signature?
If anything, the checks should be co-signed by Mr. Schumer and Madame Pelosi.
If I get a check at all (I am retired) and if I could block out that signature and still cash it I will scrub that name

His thinking is that every little bit helps.
And it does.
