Politicians have come up with way worse ideas before...
The executive are slated to make the commitments during President Donald Trump’s roundtable event touting the eponymous pilot program, which would deposit $1,000 from the government in investment accounts for newborn Americans. Executives set to appear at the roundtable include
- Michael Dell, founder and CEO of Dell Technologies
- Brad Gerstner, founder and CEO of Altimeter Capital
- Rene Haas, CEO of Arm Holdings
- Parker Harris, CTO of Slack and cofounder of Salesforce
- William McDermott, CEO of ServiceNow
- Dara Khosrowshahi, CEO of Uber
- David Solomon, chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs
- Vladimir Tenev, cofounder and CEO of Robinhood
This is a surprising broad and well rounded group committing to this. If Trump can pull it off this would be a huge win for him.
These accounts were a part of the Big Beautiful Bill that passed the House that some Senators are having issues with. Hopefully a provision like this will hold on given the huge political win it would be.
