Under the plan, individuals making up to $75,000 annually would be eligible for a $1,200 check from the federal government.

The checks, however, would reduce to $600 for taxpayers who have little or no income tax liability but have at least $2,500 in qualifying income, according to a GOP summary of the plan.
