Scoop: Trump to headline summit on Trump accounts

Source: msn/AP

7h

President Trump will join Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and philanthropist Michael Dell at a day-long summit in Washington on Wednesday to encourage parents to sign up for Trump Accounts, the new investment vehicle for kids.

Why it matters: Trump is highlighting the accounts as part of his push on affordability, with polls showing Americans are critical of his priorities.

  • Trump also plans to tackle affordability during remarks Tuesday in Clive, Iowa.


  • The Trump Accounts summit will have a Main Street focus, including families who'll participate in panel discussions — "not just CEOs and celebs," an administration official told Axios.

  • Trump will deliver the keynote in the ornate Mellon Auditorium, dedicated by President Franklin Roosevelt in 1935.

    I'd imagine that should cover the costs of hospital meals during birth (for both days of hospitalization). Of course, that would be if you could actually access that money . . .
