California put FREE college and career savings accounts in the hands of our kids.
Now 1 MILLION families have claimed them — and more than $82 MILLION has already gone directly toward education and career training.
Washington is now following California’s lead. Good. Investing in our kids shouldn’t be partisan.

Every kid deserves a shot at a bright future, no matter how much money their family makes.

I encourage everyone to sign up for BOTH CalKIDS and Trump Accounts.
This is your child's money, and everyone should take advantage of these programs.
