In a White House Press Briefing, Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller outlined the Trump administration’s plan for “DOGE dividend checks,” which would return 20% of savings to taxpayers, allocate 20% to debt reduction, and cycle the remaining 60% into the next fiscal year’s budget.
Miller explained that by reinvesting savings, the Trump administration will lower future spending levels for each consecutive year in order to reduce the national deficit over time.
“That means that you can achieve a permanent savings,” he said.
When reporters asked when exactly taxpayers might see their checks, Miller stressed that the process depends on the current ongoing congressional negotiations, with both the Senate and the House moving bills.
“This is all going to be worked on through the reconciliation process with Congress,” he said, adding that President Trump remains committed to tax relief.
“President Trump has made a historic commitment to the working class of this country,” Miller said. “Cutting spending and cutting taxes is the key to delivering on both of those promises.”
