Texas Democratic gubernatorial candidate Gina Hinojosa announced she supports President Donald Trump’s idea for a $5,000 dividend to U.S. adults but only if it is decoupled from the 2026 midterm outcome, as he conditioned.

“Right now, Americans are paying into a system that’s spending, at least, billions on grift, and it’s time for that money to go back into people’s pockets,” Hinojosa said in a statement. “I support Trump’s idea to send $5,000 checks to Texans, but it can’t be about who’s in power – it has to be about giving the people their power back.”
