The White House presented a budget blueprint on Friday that pumps more money in defense and the home protection authority and at the same time takes on an ax to programs that the Trump administration has already targeted, including education, abroad, environment, health and public support programs.

The proposal describes President Donald Trump's vision and specifies the congress for the 2026 financial year, but legislators do not have to be obliged. The blueprint published on Friday is a outline, which is also referred to as a “thin budget” and a more comprehensive plan is expected in the coming weeks.

The proposal follows Trump's priorities to carry out the skills to enforce the nation and immigration. It would increase defense spending by 13% to 1 Billion US dollar. It would also provide a “historical” investment of 175 billion US dollars for “fully secure the border”.

The administration urges them that these increases included in the budget congress in the Budget Supply Act are currently involved, which would enable without approving democratic votes in the Senate. Democrats usually rejected the increase in defense financing without corresponding increases to certain non -defense expenditure.

The blueprint also calls for a large number of discretionary programs that the Trump administration has dismantled since it was accepted in January. It would reduce $ 163 billion of non-defense, discretionary expenses, a reduction of almost 23% and reduce it to around $ 557 billion.

The administration “protected” transport, home protection, veteran affairs and “numerous other priorities”, a high -ranking administrative officer told reporters on Friday. The proposal also maintains the financing of the financing of title 1 for schools with many students with low income, financial education financing and pell grants.

However, this means that other agencies and programs will carry the main load of the cuts.

“This is a fairly historical effort to deal with bureaucracy. We believe that we have grew up for many years to be anchored against the interests of the American people,” said the official, stating that the government has worked closely with the efficiency of the government of Elon Musk to prepare the outline. “We believe that this is a joint project.”

According to the OMB letter, the proposal requires that initiatives between diversity, justice and inclusion initiatives, environmental equality and other “Woke” programs are equipped.

The agencies and programs recommended for cuts include the National Park Service, research in the field of climate science, the support of foreign trade and disaster assistance, UN peacekeepers, certain educational financing for schools, the program with low incomes, the National Institutes of Health, the centers for disease control and prevention as well as rental support.

Overall, the discretion budget would be 1.7 trillion dollars, a reduction of 7.6% compared to the current financial year. The proposal does not submit any recommendations for so -called mandatory expenditure programs, including social security, Medicare, Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, which is generally referred to as food brands.
