President Donald Trump is promising a windfall for millions of Americans — declaring that spring 2026 will bring the “largest tax refund season of all time.” And one of his top economic advisers says the checks won’t just be big — they’ll be “massive.”
Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council and a leading contender to become the next Federal Reserve chair, says a tidal wave of refund money is coming — all because of the timing of Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill.”
“We didn’t pass the Big Beautiful Bill until the middle of the summer, and so a lot of the tax changes which affect last year weren’t in any tax forms that people filled out at the beginning of the year,” he told Fox Business (1).
