.@TrumpAccounts give every American child a stake in our market and our economy. $1,000 invested at birth in a broad index fund, compounding for 18 years, is a transformational step toward jumpstarting the American Dream.

America’s economic security rests on three pillars: Industrial & Technological Dominance, Investment in America, and Preparedness. Under President Trump, we are rebuilding production at home, giving every child a stake in the American Dream with Trump Accounts, and hardening our economy against cyber, energy, and supply-chain shocks. That is how we safeguard the American people and keep America first for the next 250 years.

Thank you to the Economic Club of Dallas for hosting me today to discuss the economic impact of @POTUS @realDonaldTrump’s policies. Texas demonstrates what economic security looks like in action: energy independence, diversified growth, and prosperity built on production. When we build, invest, and innovate, America prospers.

President Trump will always put America’s national security and Americans first. And as I have said before, the President has multiple tools in his toolbox. Let’s be clear: the Court did not rule against this Administration’s tariffs. It only said IEEPA can’t be used to raise revenue. We will immediately shift to other proven authorities—Sections 232, 301, and 122—to keep our tariff strategy strong.

Whether through trafficking fentanyl into our borders or orchestrating timeshare fraud schemes, terrorist drug cartels consistently victimize Americans for profit. Under @realDonaldTrump’s leadership, we will continue our efforts to completely eradicate the cartels’ ability to generate revenue and terrorize Americans.
Today, Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control sanctioned a timeshare fraud network—including a Mexican timeshare resort near Puerto Vallarta—led by the terrorist Cartel de Jalisco Nueva Generacion. These activities generate significant proceeds for the organization at the expense of U.S. citizen victims. Timeshare fraud often targets vulnerable older Americans and can defraud victims of their life savings.

Under the guidance of @POTUS, I am pleased to announce the United States’ priorities and schedule for the 2026 @g20org Finance Track. Growth and economic security will be at the core of our streamlined, results-oriented approach to hosting these vital discussions. The selection of historic Asheville for our August meetings reflects the Trump Administration’s commitment to the revitalization and resilience of western North Carolina, which continues to rebuild after the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene.

As @POTUS has expressed, the Reverend Jesse Jackson – a fellow South Carolinian – was a good man of heroic principles. His civil rights legacy will stand the test of time.
.@POTUS: "I want to begin by expressing our sadness at the passing of a person who I knew very well... he was a good man. He was a real hero, and I just want to pay my highest respects to Reverend Jesse Jackson."

On Presidents’ Day, we honor the American spirit that has guided our nation from President Washington to President Trump. Through tax deals, trade deals, and peace deals, President Trump is setting the stage for the next 250 years of American excellence.

Democrats’ CAMT regime is a flawed, partisan experiment hatched in the minds of liberal academics who lacked practical experience. President Trump’s Treasury Department will continue to restore sanity to tax administration, using its authority to provide clarity and to keep bureaucracy out of the way of job growth and investment.

Welcome remarks from @federalreserve Vice Chair Bowman, which echo many points that I have made over the past year. President Trump’s economic policies are delivering real benefits for Main Street, and the Treasury is working hard to deliver regulatory capital reform that allows our community banks to deliver affordable credit to homebuyers. As we continue to work closely with our federal banking agencies to empower community banks and support Main Street prosperity, updating regulatory capital requirements will allow our banks, including community banks, to provide affordable mortgage credit to homebuyers.
