                Proclamation 11017 of March 12, 2026

                
Women's History Month, 2026

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                This Women's History Month, we celebrate the 
                extraordinary American women of our past and the titans 
                of our present who have strengthened our families, 
                enriched our culture, defended our values, pioneered 
                our industries, and shaped our Nation's glorious 
                future.

                For 250 years, strong women have brought our Nation to 
                countless new heights and moments of triumph. To this 
                day, across every industry, women are champions of 
                success, trailblazers in their fields, and models in 
                their homes. Whether they serve our Nation as service 
                members, government leaders, entrepreneurs, or mothers, 
                every devoted woman guides our Nation's strength, 
                prosperity, and way of life.

                For this reason, my Administration will always promote 
                policies that embolden women, uplift our children, and 
                fortify the American family. Since I returned to office 
                last year, we have permanently expanded the child tax 
                credit, invested in the next generation through our 
                historic creation of Trump Accounts, and dramatically 
                reduced prices on common medicines like insulin and 
                fertility treatments through TrumpRx. We are keeping 
                men out of women's sports, enforcing Title IX as it was 
                originally written, and ensuring colleges preserve--
                and, where possible, expand--scholarships and roster 
                opportunities for female athletes. At the same time, we 
                are restoring public safety and upholding the rule of 
                law in every city so women, children, and families can 
                feel safe and secure.

                We are also restoring strength to the American economy, 
                ensuring that women who work hard, build businesses, 
                and grow our industries can achieve greater success 
                than ever before. A small business owner can now expand 
                her company thanks to our historic 20 percent tax 
                deduction. A farmer will benefit from new trade markets 
                that allow her to sell more American-grown products 
                around the world. And with the great One Big Beautiful 
                Bill, we eliminated tax on tips and overtime pay--
                putting more money in the pockets of hardworking women 
                across America.

                This month, we recognize and honor the incredible women 
                who have built our Nation, formed our conscience, and 
                elevated our spirit. May their legacies continue to 
                inspire future generations of citizens to strive for 
                excellence, lead proudly, and carry forth the enduring 
                values that make America the greatest country in the 
                history of the world.

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the 
                United States of America, by virtue of the authority 
                vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the 
                United States, do hereby proclaim March 2026 as Women's 
                History Month. I call upon public officials, educators, 
                librarians, and all the people of the United States to 
                observe this day with appropriate programs, ceremonies, 
                and activities.

                United States of America the two hundred and fiftieth.
