4+ min ago (385+ words) Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that working Americans are set to get "very large refunds" next year as tax cuts that were enabled in the Republican-backed One Big Beautiful Bill Act are set to go into effect. American workers haven't yet adjusted their tax withholding, meaning that the refunds will be coming during the tax year, he said. After the refunds, their withholdings are likely to change so that less tax is taken from each paycheck, he said, adding that there will be a "real increase" in wages. "The bill was passed in July, working Americans didn't change their withholding, so they're going to be getting very large refunds in the first quarter" of next year, the secretary stated. "A lot of that will come as tax refunds at the beginning of the year," Hassett said. "We're right now drilling…...
