Executive Order: Promoting Retirement-Savings Access for American Workers by Establishing TrumpIRA.gov
Summary
This executive order directs the Treasury Secretary to create a government website (TrumpIRA.gov) by January 1, 2027, that lists private-sector IRAs meeting strict cost and quality criteria (net expense ratios ≤0.15%, no minimums) and promotes the existing federal Saver's Match of up to $1,000. It aims to increase retirement savings access for workers without employer plans, particularly independent contractors and self-employed individuals, by steering them toward low-cost, index-based investment options offered by qualifying financial institutions.

National Homeownership Month, 2026
This proclamation formalizes National Homeownership Month and details several ongoing or proposed policy actions: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are directed to purchase $200 billion in mortgage-backed securities to lower borrowing costs; an executive order bans large institutional investors from buying single-family homes; and the Administration calls on Congress to pass the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act to make these reforms permanent. The action also reaffirms efforts to restrict taxpayer-backed loans to only law-abiding citizens, targeting fraud and illegal immigration as a means to improve housing affordability.

It directs agency heads to petition for reclassification of policy-influencing roles, mandates performance bonus pools for these employees, and amends civil service rules to exempt them from standard adverse action procedures.
