Trump Proposes Universal Savings and $1,000 Match for US Workers
Donald Trump announced "Trump Accounts" for children and a universal retirement plan for workers during his State of the Union address.The initiative provides $1,000 in seed money for children and offers adults a federal retirement match of up to $1,000 annually, supported by a $6.25 billion pledge from Michael Dell and Susan Dell.Critics argued the matching mirrors the "
Saver's Match" program enacted under
Joe Biden, though Treasury Secretary
Scott Bessent maintained the policy builds on legislation signed by
Donald Trump.
