Trump Accounts: The Defining Policy of America’s 250th AnniversarySecretary Scott BessentJanuary 28, 2026IntroductionThank you, Speaker Johnson, for that kind introduction. It’s an honor to be here with all of you. President Donald Trump will be remembered for many things:The President who enacted the largest tax cut in history for American citizens. The President who rebalanced global trade to the benefit of working families. The President who, through simple common sense, saved our country by securing the border. In short, the President who Made America Great Again. But arguably his most enduring legacy—the program that will not only transform lives now but ripple across generations—is why we are here today. History will remember President Trump as the leader who brought financial market opportunity to all American families. It will remember him as the President who oversaw the largest merger in history between Main Street and Wall Street.
