共和党参议员伯尼·莫雷诺(俄亥俄州)周二表示,他将提出立法,将特朗普政府为儿童设立的投资账户的使用范围扩大至40岁以下的美国人。
GOP Sen. Bernie Moreno (Ohio) said Tuesday he will introduce legislation to expand access to the Trump administration’s investment accounts for children to Americans under the age of 40.
“这将改变游戏规则,我将在参议院牵头推动该法案,使其成为现实,”莫雷诺在社交平台X上写道。“‘特朗普账户’已经在改变全美各地家庭的生活。”
“This is a game-changer and I’ll lead the bill in the Senate to make it happen,” Moreno wrote on social platform X. “Trump Accounts are already transforming lives for families across America.”
这位俄亥俄州共和党人辩称,提高“特朗普账户”的年龄上限将“为辛勤工作的美国人提供强大的新工具,用于购房、偿清学生贷款,以及投资于他们自己的未来。”参议员们目前处于休会期,定于11月9日返回。共和党在参议院以53比47占优,并正试图在11月的中期选举中保持对参议院的控制权。
The Ohio Republican argued that raising the age limit for “Trump Accounts” will “give hardworking Americans powerful new tools to buy homes, wipe out student debt, and invest in their own futures.”Senators are on recess and are scheduled to return on Nov. 9. Republicans hold a 53-47 edge in the Senate and are attempting to maintain control of the upper chamber in the November midterms.
Altimeter公司首席执行官布拉德·格斯特纳是这些账户的支持者,他最近告诉《纽约邮报》,他正在努力将账户的适用范围扩大到40岁以下的任何人。

格斯特纳补充说,该立法将提议使账户的资金来源永久化——财政部正在向2025年初至2028年间出生的任何美国儿童的账户存入1000美元。
Gerstner added the legislation would propose making funding for the accounts permanent — the Treasury Department is depositing $1,000 into the account of any American child born from the start of 2025 through 2028.

总统周二表示,他的政府正在研究“一种替代版本”的特朗普账户,面向成年人。

“We are looking at something different, because it is somewhat of a different thing, having to do with adults,” Trump told reporters.
