The U.S. Treasury Department announced that Trump Accounts will begin auto-enrolling millions of children as early as October 1. This measure could increase enrollments in 2026 to more than 60 million children. So far, 7 to 8 million American children are already enrolled, but Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on September 15 that he expects to reach 70 million accounts within a month after auto-enrollment launches. These tax-deferred investing accounts, launched on July 4, include a one-time $1,000 deposit from the Treasury for children born between 2025 and 2028.
