There has been no specific mention on whether this income is taxable or not on the federal level. Given this fact, this is taxable income unless it is specifically excluded by the tax code.
My suggestion is to report it now and if there is a tax code change regarding this rebate, you can amend the return excluding this income.
To report go to federal>wages and income>other common income>1099 MISC.
