Rep. Gomez Challenges GOP: Trump’s Name Doesn’t Belong on a Children’s Savings Account

WASHINGTON, DC – Today, during floor debate on releasing the full Epstein files, Congressman Jimmy Gomez (CA-34) delivered a parliamentary inquiry calling out Republicans for naming a children’s savings account program after President Donald Trump, a man whose name appears repeatedly in documents connected to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.  
 
The inquiry, delivered at the end of Rep. Gomez’s remarks, forced House Republicans to confront the hypocrisy between branding the accounts as a pro-child initiative while refusing to reckon with Trump’s long-standing ties to Epstein.   
 
“I rise to ask a point of parliamentary inquiry. Is this an appropriate time to point out that the Republicans named children's savings account in their so-called ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ after Donald Trump, someone connected to one of the most notorious pedophiles in this country?” asked Rep. Jimmy Gomez. “Or that the Speaker of the House just lied on the [House] floor by stating that there aren't protections for the victims in the Epstein bill?” 
 
Republicans inserted the “Trump Accounts” provision into the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” turning a newborn savings program into a Trump-branded product. The move comes at the same time Trump and Republicans have resisted efforts to fully release Epstein-related records to the public. 
 
Rep. Gomez has been one of the loudest voices in Congress pushing for the full release of the Epstein files, insisting that the public deserves every name, every email, and every document out in the open.
