A new Center for American Progress report shows that the wealth gap grew during the Trump administration, widening the divide between the richest and the rest of the population.

Data analysis indicates that high‑income households accumulated a larger share of total wealth, while middle‑ and low‑income groups saw slower growth. The findings point to policy choices that favored the affluent, raising questions about the fairness of tax cuts and deregulation.

Accountability for these outcomes demands a transparent review of fiscal policy and a commitment to equitable redistribution. Only by confronting the structural causes of inequality can the nation move toward justice and reparations for historically marginalized communities.
