Original: Is it legal? Trump promises Medicare and ACA checks without Congress ahead of midterm elections
President Trump has promised to send checks to Medicare and Affordable Care Act recipients ahead of the midterm elections, raising questions over whether he can do so without approval from Congress. News outlets are examining the legality of the pledge, since federal spending typically requires congressional authorization, and the announcement is being scrutinized as a possible pre-election move.
