Trump touts $250M investment in Trump accounts by Micron CEO
The Trump Accounts program has attracted considerable private investment, including from other CEOS.
President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced that Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra had made a $250 million investment in the "Trump Accounts," a program of investment accounts for young Americans.
"BIG NEWS! Micron, a truly GREAT American Company, and one of the 'HOTTEST' anywhere in the World, has announced a HISTORIC $250 MILLION Investment in TRUMP ACCOUNTS," he posted on Truth Social. "This incredible gesture, made by Micron’s fantastic CEO, Sanjay Mehrotra, will make many children extremely happy some day in the not too distant future. This is the BIGGEST CORPORATE Investment of its kind, and will help jumpstart the American Dream for these fabulous children as we celebrate America's 250th Anniversary!"
"This MASSIVE Investment will help MILLIONS of American children and families get a strong start in life, and give them REAL Financial Security," he added. "Micron is investing directly in the American Worker and Family! This is exactly what the fabulously successful TRUMP ACCOUNTS were created to do — Give every American Child a headstart, and a real chance to succeed."
The Trump Accounts program has attracted considerable private investment, including from other CEOS. Bridgewater Associated founder Ray Dalio last year pledged to support as many as 300,000 accounts. Dell CEO Michael Dell, the same month, pledge $6.2 billion in funds to the program.
