Trump admin live updates: President to announce 'Trump savings accounts' for parents, guardians


President Donald Trump will host a roundtable Monday to formally announce the provision in his massive funding bill called the “Trump savings accounts,” which will allow parents and guardians to invest funds in the financial markets on behalf of children, a White House official confirms to ABC News.

The savings account would be applicable to children born between January 1, 2025, and January 1, 2029. The government would deposit $1,000 into a tax-deferred, low-cost index fund account that will track the overall stock market for each newborn. Additional contributions can go up to $5,000 annually. When the children reach adulthood, they are able to take out the money to cover things like college or a down payment on a home.

“The passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill will literally change the lives of working, middle class families across America by delivering the largest tax cuts in history, increasing the child tax credit, AND by creating this incredible new “Trump Account” program, which will put the lives of young Americans on the right financial path,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement to ABC News.

Multiple CEO’s from companies, such as Dell Technologies, will appear with Trump to announce billions of dollars in collective investments into “Trump Accounts” for the children of their employees, according to the official.

The event comes as the White House works to highlight Trump’s so-called “One, Big, Beautiful Bill,” as the Senate works through attempting to pass the budget bill and amid explosive criticism from Elon Musk last week.
