Us Trump Administration Focus on Birth Rate: America is currently moving towards a serious population crisis, the biggest reason for which is the falling fertility rate. According to the recent report, the US fertility rate is 1.62, which is far below the 2.1 level. This decline can not only create population but also an imbalance in the economy and social structure. To overcome this crisis, the administration led by Donald Trump has prepared a new policy direction, which is aimed at “Family First America”.

Under this campaign, the administration will encourage the public to marry and have a child. With its help, there is an attempt to start a new baby boom in the country. President Trump is openly calling it “Fertilization Presidency” and giving the slogan of ‘Baby Bonus’. He says that we should hear the children’s kilns again in America.

Proposed policies of US government
The proposals of the administration include many incentive schemes, which are aimed at giving economic, social and cultural inspiration to start a family. According to major schemes, every new mother lump sum bonus of $ 5,000, so that the early needs of the newborn can be fulfilled and the families can get financial assistance. The prestigious scholars like Fulbright include married and 30% reservation for parents. The marriage is being linked to educational opportunities with this proposal. Women who have six or more children have been recommended to be honored with a symbolic “National Medal of Motherhood”.

Declaration of government subsidy on IVF
Government subsidy has been announced for infertility treatment like in vitro fertilization (IVF), so that more women can succeed in becoming mothers. Information is also being shared among women about the period, with the help of which women can understand their body and fertility better. This proposal is being considered an essential step towards public health awareness.

Conceptual support and criticism
A new ideological debate has started in America regarding new policy. Orthodox -thinking proposals consider these proposals to be a return to traditional family values, while critics are protesting by calling it a narrow definition of the family. Alan Musk, who himself is the father of 12 children. He says that if people still do not give priority to have a child, then the decline of civilization is certain. JD Vance considers this movement as the national mission of the population revival. On the other hand, Northwestern University’s breeding expert Eve Phinberg considers the entire policy more ideological than a scientist. He says that as long as economic insecurity remains, only baby bonus will not solve the problem.

Economic and social approach
The decline in fertility rate is not only a cultural issue, it is also associated with economic stability and social structure. Experts believe that when the family feels financially safe, then they think of having a child. Schemes like baby bonus will be effective only when healthcare access, inexpensive child care, parental leave and employment safety are also ensured.
