Trump aims to get Americans more retirement savings plans and federal match

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday calling for a new government website where people in the United States can find and compare private-sector retirement savings accounts, aiming to help millions of workers whose employers do not offer such plans. The order is intended to help more people gain access to retirement plans before next year, when the federal government will start matching retirement contributions made by lower-income workers. That new matching contribution, known as the Saver’s Match, comes from 2022 legislation passed under Democratic President Joe Biden. Starting in January, it will offer a match of up to $1,000 for workers who make less than $35,000 a year. Trump’s order is meant to help make the match available to roughly 50 million people who do not have retirement plans offered by their employers. The Republican president directed the Treasury Department to launch TrumpIRA.gov, where workers will be able to compare private-sector retirement plans. “For millions of Americans who lack employer-sponsored plans, this will be really revolutionary, because they’ll be covered,” Trump said at an Oval Office signing ceremony. He is not offering a new government retirement plan but helping match workers with existing plans from private companies. Details of the order were first reported by the news outlet Semafor. Trump discussed the idea during his State of the Union address in February, when he noted that about half the people in the country do not have access to employer-provided retirement plans with matching contributions. “To remedy this gross disparity, I’m announcing that next year my administration will give these often-forgotten American workers — great people, the people that built our country — access to the same type of retirement plan offered to every federal worker,” Trump said. The Saver’s Match program will offer a maximum match of $1,000 for single filers and $2,000 for married couples who file jointly. The maximum will be limited to single filers earning less than $20,500, with smaller matches offered for those earning up to $35,500. It applies to contributions made toward 401(k) plans, IRAs and Roth IRAs. Trump said he wants to take the match “to the next level” by asking Congress to expand it to those with incomes higher than $35,000 a year. Kevin Hassett, director of the White House’s National Economic Council, said many middle-income earners also lack access to employer retirement plans. “We’re working with Congress to significantly expand this program and are looking forward to legislation this year,” Hassett said at the ceremony.

Maine Gov. Mills Drops Democratic U.S. Senate Bid Against Platner

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Democratic Maine U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner says he hopes to work with Gov. Janet Mills to turn Republican Sen. Susan Collins’ seat “blue again” now Mills has dropped out of their primary. Platner said Thursday he and Mills entered the Senate race because they know how critical it is to defeat Collins and Mills’ decision “reflects a commitment to that.” Mills says she has the passion and commitment but not the financial resources to continue her campaign. Mills had the backing of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and prominent left-leaning advocacy groups but struggled to outshine Platner, an oyster farmer and first-time candidate. Collins has thanked Mills for her decades of service.

Senate bans its own members, staff from betting in prediction markets

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate has approved a bipartisan resolution to prevent its members from using prediction markets. A resolution passed by voice vote Thursday bans senators and their staff from making bets on upcoming events. It's a change to the Senate’s rules, so it will go into effect immediately. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer calls the move a “no-brainer” and he's encouraging the House and Trump administration to follow suit. The rule change comes as lawmakers increasingly voice concerns about prediction markets and people making wagers on current events, including the war with Iran.

Hegseth clashes with Democrats in Congress over Iran War

WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth clashed with Democratic lawmakers in Congress for a second day. At the start of a hearing Thursday in front of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Hegseth rejected senators’ accusations that the Iran war was launched without evidence of an imminent threat and waged with no coherent strategy. He called Democratic lawmakers “reckless naysayers” and “defeatists from the cheap seats.” He said they have failed to recognize the many successes of the military against the Islamic Republic over the last two months and in other operations since President Donald Trump returned to office.

Trump picks Nicole Saphier for Surgeon General

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump says he's nominating former Fox News Channel contributor Dr. Nicole Saphier for surgeon general after Dr. Casey Means’ path forward stalled in the Senate. In a social media post Thursday, Trump said Saphier is “a STAR physician who has spent her career guiding women facing breast cancer through their diagnosis and treatment.” Senators of both major political parties grilled Means on her vaccine stance and other health topics during a tense confirmation hearing, deepening doubts about her ability to secure the votes she needs for the position. Saphier in at least one case has pushed back on Trump's medical messaging.
