First lady Melania Trump<\/a> delivered a plea to lawmakers on Wednesday, demanding “action over awareness” to secure the futures of America’s foster children by turning her recent executive action into permanent law.<\/p>\n

During a bipartisan congressional committee meeting, Trump outlined her vision to transform vulnerable youth into financially independent business owners<\/a>, explaining the American dream should be “their birthright.”<\/p>\n

While describing the “Fostering the Future” executive order she signed in November as a “transformative vision,” she said Congress now has the opportunity to create a lasting, positive impact by passing permanent legislation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Since the start of her nationwide initiative, “Fostering the Future” in 2021, the program has a footprint in more than 20 universities across the country, including major institutions like Louisiana State University, University of Virginia, University of Texas and The Ohio State University.<\/p>\n

Rather than relying on perpetual government assistance, Trump said her goal at the university level<\/a> is to prepare those in foster care to secure entry level jobs, become financially independent, create new businesses and generate employment opportunities.<\/p>\n

She also highlighted roadblocks within the current system, noting that only roughly 3% of people in the foster care community earn a college degree.<\/p>\n

“We can close this gap, but still, foster youth face a special set of challenges outside the classroom that have a serious impact on their academic performance,” Trump said.<\/p>\n

“These issues include housing instability<\/a>, educational advocacy, financial barriers [and] transportation continuity,” she continued. “… New legislation for the foster care community is a moral imperative.”<\/p>\n

The FLOTUS added safeguarding foster children’s well-being helps “shape the integrity of our nation,” and reminded bipartisan lawmakers that “America’s children are our moral equals.”<\/p>\n

“As parents and leaders, it is our ethical obligation to ensure American children develop emotionally and physically within a safe environment,” Trump said. “As a community, we strive to nurture our children’s curiosity, protect their innocence, and guide them with hearts full of care. … But to get there, a strong knowledge base is required. Education is the cornerstone of a child’s future.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
