Trump has released his budget for 2027, and it's far worse than we could possibly have imagined. It takes a buzzsaw to all the programs, institutions, and departments that help millions of Americans, keep our country functioning, and prepare us for the future — all gutted to pay for the most outrageous military budget in human history.
Trump's new budget will:
* Cut $240 million from the McGovern-Dole Food for Education Program
* Fully eliminate the Job Corps, which provides free education and vocational training for young Americans
* Cut $5 BILLION from to the National Health Institute, gutting research into curing deadly diseases
* Fully eliminate the Food for Peace program
* Slash $73 billion from housing, education, and climate programs
* Cut the EPA's budget by HALF
* Gut NASA's budget by 23%
* Cut nearly $5 billion from USDA
* Eliminate $354 million in funding to historically Black colleges and universities
* Cut $204.5 million for the Community Development Financial Institutions fund, which stimulates growth in economically disadvantaged communities
* Cut $10.7 billion for housing
* Slash $8.5 billion from K-12 programs
* Cancel $15 billion for clean energy
* Cut $2.5 billion for clean drinking water
* Eliminate $1.6 billion for youth job training
* Cut $3.5 billion from the Labor Department
* Eliminate $395 million for senior employment
* Eliminate $775 million in food assistance grants
* Eliminate the National Endowment for Democracy
All to pay for $1.5 TRILLION for the military, including money to build 41 obsolete battleships.
This is the most regressive, anti-people, pro-war budget ever proposed. It is a horrifying, deeply evil plan that hangs the American people out to dry and funnels all our taxpayer dollars into the pockets of arms dealers and blood profiteers.
We cannot allow it to pass.
Add your name to demand Congress REJECT this abhorrent budget and pass a budget that reflects the needs of the American people!
