Trump mulls $5K ‘baby bonus’ for moms in bid to reverse declining birth rates: report

ISABEL KEANE for NEW YORK POST

The Trump Administration has been mulling ways to get more Americans married and having kids — including a $5,000 “baby bonus” for every new mom after delivery, according to a report.

White House officials have recently been brainstorming plans to tackle the declining birth and marriage rates — and push more Americans toward the traditional family values of Trump and his allies.

Policy experts and advocates for growing the birth rate have been meeting with White House aides to come up with plans to convince more women to have babies, four people who have been part of the meetings told the New York Times.

One plan would give a $5,000 incentive to new moms, while another would see that 30% of all Fulbright scholarships be given to applicants who are married or have children.

Another option being considered would have the government fund programs to educate women on their menstrual cycles so they can know when they are ovulating and able to conceive, according to the report.

Birth rates in the US have long been slipping, hitting a new low in 2023 with just under 3.6 million babies born that year.

That’s about 76,000 less than 2022 and the lowest one-year tally since 1979.

While the pandemic brought a slight uptick in 2021 to 2022, the trend seems to be headed downward once again.

Additionally, the ages of women giving birth have started to shift as of late, with the birth rate among teens and younger women dropping while more and more women in their 30s and 40s are having babies.

White House officials have not yet indicated what plans, if any, they are looking to push forward.

The sources noted that fertility issues will likely become a prominent piece of the agenda in order to achieve the “baby boom” that Trump and his pronatalist allies, Elon Musk and Vice President JD Vance, are seeking.
