The rebates -- $38 billion worth -- are the product of President Bush's tax legislation

To celebrate the mailing of the first checks, Vice President Dick Cheney and Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill went to a government check-writing facility in Kansas City, Missouri. Friday. Bush joined them via satellite

Bonus:

At Wal-Mart stores across the country, people can cash their checks on site or spend the amount in the store against the value of the check.

Some things never change.

Yes that is the third word that I wrote above you there.

I brought it up hoping some boomers would add context because at the time I had just turned 18 and don't remember a lot.

But then I thought I was going crazy because dead internet.

I guess taxes were high when I was a kid in the 90s, and that's bad? It all got sent to israel? They used it to ship in le niggur?

Clinton was president until January 20, 2001. You're technically correct but wrong about who signed the bill:

The Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 was passed and signed on June 7, 2001. The Act cut tax rates, and it also included a rebate of fiscal year 2000 taxes of up to $300 for single taxpayers, $500 for single taxpayers with dependents, and $600 for married couples.
