President Donald Trump has signed an Executive Order aiming to modernize the U.S. foster care system by uniting federal resources with public and private-sector partnerships -- providing better educational, employment, housing, mentorship, and scholarship opportunities for foster youth -- especially those aging out of the system.

The U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) announced on Wednesday that it will hear oral arguments on January 21, 2026, in Trump v. Cook, a media-frenzied case testing the president’s authority to remove members of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.
