HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Despite political wrangling, Americans might be getting actual stimulus payments as soon as Tuesday night.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin tweeted that the $600 direct deposits could arrive in accounts soon, with paper checks going into the mail Wednesday.
But some Houstonians who spoke with Eyewitness News shortly after Mnuchin’s announcement feel this is a blessing, while others call it a “slap in the face.”
“I think it’s a blessing,” said Jesus Colon. “I think it’s going to help a lot of people, including myself.”
Danny Vera, a Houston resident, agrees.
“A lot of people are behind on bills and that would be so very good for people that need it,” he said.
