President Donald Trump's tax legislation included a provision called "Trump Accounts," which gives $1,000 to every newborn if their parents open an account. This money is invested in the stock market, and children can access it when they turn 18. The accounts aim to help low-income children build wealth. Congress is funding accounts for babies born between 2025 and 2028. Billionaires Michael and Susan Dell on Tuesday announced a donation to help some older children with seed money of $250 each. Critics argue the accounts don't help children in their early years and may widen the wealth gap. Parents can sign up now, and the accounts will start to open in July 2026.

Federal authorities are preparing an immigration enforcement operation in Minnesota, focusing on Somali immigrants living unlawfully in the U.S. The operation, which could begin soon, targets people in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area with final deportation orders. This move follows President Trump's recent rhetoric about the Somali community, which has heightened tensions. Minnesota has the largest Somali community in the nation. Many fled the civil war in Somalia and were drawn to the state's welcoming programs. Community leaders express concern over profiling and fear the operation may lead to incidental arrests of others lacking legal status.
