Executive agency responsible for promoting economic prosperity & ensuring financial security of the United States. Led by 79th Treasury @SecScottBessent

Washington, DC, USA
Joined March 2010
The U.S. economy is expanding thanks to @POTUS’ proactive trade policies, deregulation, and pro-growth provisions in the Working Families Tax Cuts. Revised GDP data show stronger growth in Q1 and Q2 of 2026, driven in part by greater consumer spending and investment. Forecasters expect that momentum to build in Q3. The Trump Administration is delivering on its promises by restoring durable growth, unleashing investment, and powering the reindustrialization of the American economy.

Today, I joined Deputy Secretary Francis Brooke and Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh for a productive meeting with Korean Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance and Economy Lee Hyung-il and Bank of Korea Governor Hyun Song Shin. Our four institutions exchanged views on economic and financial conditions in both countries and discussed opportunities to further strengthen U.S.-Korea economic and financial cooperation.

What began as @TreasurerBeach’s ambitious challenge to more than double @USMint’s annual sales became a historic achievement in FY 2026. Congratulations to Director Paul Hollis and the entire U.S. Mint team on their exceptional work celebrating America’s 250th anniversary and delivering the Bureau’s highest sales in over two decades.
America First. American craftsmanship. Real results. The U.S. Mint topped $1 billion in FY 2026 sales—a 20+ year high—with strong demand for the President Donald J. Trump $1 Coin. Celebrating 250 years of American greatness. At no cost to taxpayers.

Last year, I challenged the @USMint team to think bigger, work harder, and more than double their annual sales from roughly $500 million to over $1 billion. Today, I am incredibly proud to announce that they DELIVERED! With over $1 billion in FY2026 sales, the Mint has achieved its highest sales in more than two decades. From our historic America 250 coinage to new products that have captured the enthusiasm of collectors nationwide, this team has proven what American ingenuity, craftsmanship, and determination can accomplish. Congratulations to the entire @USMint team. You answered the challenge and made history!

Thanks to @POTUS’ leadership, we are delivering on his commitment to guarantee Fair Banking for all Americans. Our review @USOCC documents how banks’ use of subjective “reputation risk” policies restricted access to financial services based on customers’ beliefs and lawful business activities. Victims spanned across the political spectrum, ranging from small businesses that sold merchandise supporting the President to companies that donated predominantly to Democrats. Under this @USTreasury Department, that won’t happen again. We will continue working to ensure Americans have fair access to our banking system, regardless of their political or religious views.

More than five centuries ago, the son of a wool weaver from Genoa sailed westward to widen the boundaries of the known world. Across a vast and punishing Atlantic, the voyage exhausted the patience of its crew, but never the conviction of its captain. Christopher Columbus kept going. Two hundred and fifty years after America’s founding, we still marvel at the restless spirit of discovery that revealed the New World to the Old. President Trump has defended Columbus against the radical left’s campaign to erase his legacy. Now, Columbus again stands where he belongs – within the great procession of figures who shaped our national story. Happy Columbus Day. Sail On.

Another day, another Econ 101 lesson for Professor Warren. Her “Trumpflation” tracker conveniently ignores the Bidenflation tidal wave that crushed American families, cherry-picks wage growth by refusing to acknowledge positive real wage gains since President Trump came into office, and swaps official medical-care CPI data for premium projections when it suits her narrative. The Harvard Square inflationista is offering a statistical sleight of hand, not a serious assessment of today’s U.S. economy. Here is the full picture, including an apples-to-apples comparison of President Trump’s real economic results measured against the failed policies Senator Warren championed under Biden.

Iran has a new oil minister. Considering Iran has not loaded a single barrel of crude onto a vessel since August 25th, what is the oil minister managing?

Capital follows confidence. Since @POTUS took office, the United States has been the world’s leading destination for foreign direct investment. Under this Administration, lower taxes, fairer trade, and lighter regulation are ensuring that America remains the premier place to invest, build, hire, and innovate.
