00:00Imagine waking up to find an extra $1,000 a year added to your retirement savings.
00:04That's what President Donald Trump's new proposal could mean for millions of Americans.
00:10Right now, more than 56 million workers have no access to an employer retirement plan.
00:15No 401k match.
00:17No long-term security.
00:19Nothing.
00:19Trump says that changes now.
00:21In his State of the Union address, he announced a bold plan.
00:25A plan to give workers at small companies the same kind of benefits federal employees get.
00:30And that includes up to $1,000 a year in matching contributions.
00:34The idea is modeled on the Federal Thrift Savings Plan and powered by the Savers Match, created under the Secure
00:402.0 Act.
00:41It targets low-income workers who need it most.
00:44This follows another initiative, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which created Trump accounts for children,
00:51giving newborns a $1,000 credit to start their savings early.
00:55But here's the real issue.
00:57Americans are struggling to save.
00:58The median retirement balance for workers is just $40,000.
01:02And for many, it's under $1,000.
01:05Nearly half of U.S. workers don't have any employer plan at all.
01:08And without that, most people simply don't save.
01:12Trump's new plan aims to close that gap.
01:14For millions, it could be the first real chance at a secure retirement.
01:18And for the country, it could be a turning point in how Americans prepare for their future.
