A Washington Post/ABC Mews poll in August of that year had Bush at 59%:

But this week, when despite ongoing media hostility to his policies a new ABC News/Washington Post survey discovered a four point jump upward in approval for Bush’s job performance, to 59 percent, neither World News Tonight or Good Morning America uttered a syllable about it. They also skipped improvements in his ratings on environmental and energy policy.

The Lehrer Newshour credits Republicans for the "rebate":

Both Democrats and Republicans in Congress had very different ideas, but the Republican plan won out since they had a majority in both the House and Senate at the time. (They'd lose the Senate to the Democrats in June.)

Over Memorial Day weekend, Congress passed the plan, called the "Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001," and President Bush signed it soon after.
