Melania Trump revealed at a White House ball Thursday that she has a “legislative initiative” for next year—leaving her husband largely stumped.
The first lady gave characteristically brief remarks at the Congressional Ball, during which she thanked House Speaker Mike Johnson for helping pass the Take It Down Act earlier this year. Part of her Be Best initiative, the law criminalizes the distribution of “deepfake” images as well as unaltered intimate images without the subject’s consent.
Melania, 55, then turned to what she is eyeing for next year, but ultimately left the matter a guessing game.
“I hope you will be excited to support my new legislative initiative in 2026. Some of you already know about it because it’s already in the works,” she said before wrapping up her remarks.
