Trump's upcoming speech in Iowa at the 'America250' event will unveil proposals such as 'Patriot Games' for student athletes and a 'Great American State Fair.' This initiative aims to honor each state and foster pride in America's heritage. Trump's policy agenda will also include a controversial tax package anticipated to raise budget deficits while extending previous tax cuts and reducing social service funding. He will discuss his trade policies, which are causing contention with farmers due to proposed tariffs. An executive order to plan the 250th anniversary was signed in January.
