A total of 88% of Republicans favor the idea, along with 56% of Democrats.
The proposal is popular among voters of all income ranges, with at least 78% of those making less than $50,000 in favor of it, and 69% of those making over $150,000.
Just 37% believe it is likely that the government will actually issue the check to most Americans, with 55% saying it is unlikely.

Trump on Monday insisted that federal tariff revenue would go towards paying down the national debt after he had distributed stimulus checks.
