President Donald Trump on Friday announced plans to send “nearly $100" checks to more than 20 million seniors on Medicare, his latest pledge to send voters money before a critical slate of midterm elections in November.

The payments, which come from the Treasury Department, will arrive with a letter signed by President Donald Trump explaining the refunds, according to USA TODAY. In the letter, Trump writes that the Biden administration "overcharged" Americans to fund HealthCare.gov.

The Affordable Care Act $500 refund checks are in the mail to nearly a million Americans, along with a letter from President Donald Trump touting his healthcare accomplishments and casting blame on his predecessor.

The president said the money is to help cover medical costs. It’s unclear whether he has the authority to send out the money and is the latest example of him promising constituents cash.
