Overview
- President Trump spoke at Wheeler High School on Wednesday to publicly promote the administration’s Trump Accounts program and to appear with Republican candidates in Georgia.
- The White House said Trump Accounts began July 4 and seed $1,000 into accounts for children born 2025–2028, with parents and employers able to add up to $5,000 per year to tax-advantaged accounts.
- Officials and the administration reported millions of sign-ups and said major firms and philanthropists would match contributions, with the White House citing corporate matches and a $6.25 billion pledge from Michael and Susan Dell.
- Rick Jackson joined Trump on stage and pledged to push Georgia to match the federal $1,000 contribution if elected governor, while Trump publicly promoted Rep. Mike Collins’ Senate bid though Collins was absent due to votes in Washington.
- Local groups staged protests against holding the White House event at a public school, and Trump broadened his remarks to include election-integrity proposals and foreign policy comments, underscoring the visit’s mix of policy rollout and campaign activity.
