President celebrates automatic enrollment of 70 million Trump Accounts for children
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump held an Oval Office event celebrating the automatic enrollment of roughly 70 million American children in "Trump Accounts," urging parents to claim the new investment vehicles.
- Republicans' Big Beautiful Bill created these tax-advantaged brokerage accounts last year as IRAs, providing a $1,000 government seed payment and $5,000 annual contribution limits for families alongside $2,500 for employers.
- Dell Technologies CEO Michael Dell and Susan Dell donated roughly $6.25 billion to the program, while over 70 companies including Uber, Intel, and Nvidia committed to contributing to employees' children's accounts.
- Parents must claim accounts before managing funds or receiving private contributions, which supplement the $1,000 federal seed payment. To qualify, beneficiaries must be born between Jan. 1, 2025, and Dec. 31, 2028, with 80% of accounts linked to families earning less than $200,000.
- "If all goes well, they'll end up being quite rich by the time they're 18," Trump said, describing the initiative as enabling the next generation to benefit from a booming economy.
