Stimulus Checks On the Way For Some
Posted on April 28, 2008

WASHINGTON – Senator Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), chairman of the Senate
Republican Conference, today released the following statement on the
announcement that distribution of tax refunds passed by Congress as part
of the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 would begin earlier than expected.

“Next week, the first of 130 million households will begin receiving
their tax rebates as a result of the bipartisan economic growth package
passed by Congress earlier this year. With food prices soaring and fuel
costs at an all-time high, the family budget is being squeezed, and this
tax relief is arriving at the right time. We’re working to bring relief
to families while boosting our economy. The government is issuing the
tax relief more quickly than previously expected, and that’s a good
thing for the country.”
