Frequently asked questions
Does Connecticut have a Trump Account program?
The contribution we track for Connecticut is philanthropic – from donors and foundations, not a Connecticut state-government program. No state-run Connecticut Trump Account program has been confirmed against an official state source; each entry below shows who is contributing, with its source and the date we last checked it.
How do I open a Trump Account in Connecticut?
Opening the account itself happens through the federal site, TrumpAccounts.gov – not through a Connecticut state office and not through this site. The programs tracked here add money to an account once it exists, and each sets its own eligibility, which you can check against the source we link. We cannot open, claim, or confirm eligibility for any account.
Are these Connecticut contributions from the state government?
No. The contributions tracked for Connecticut come from Ray and Barbara Dalio – private donors and foundations, not the Connecticut state government. If a state-run program is confirmed against an official Connecticut source, we will add it with its source.
