California Residents: is the Golden State stimulus taxable by the Fed?

Factual Questions
1

I received a California stimulus check last year. I’ve looked online, but can
only find confirmation that it isn’t taxable by the state.

Does anyone know if I have to report it to the IRS?

" Golden State Stimulus taxation

While individual states that offered stimulus checks may have different rules, the California Franchise Tax Board confirms on its [website] that the Golden State Stimulus payments are not subjected to state tax.

As with the federal stimulus payments, the Golden State Stimulus cannot be claimed as income.

Therefore, it cannot be claimed on an income tax return."

I’m pretty sure they are only saying it is not considered income in California for state tax purposes and not talking about the IRS (which they are silent on).
