Donald Trump wishes to focus the United States budget for 2026 on internal security and defense, the White House said on Friday May 2. Domains which had been erected as priorities by the Republican President during his electoral campaign.
The White House said that this first budget proposal also included 22% cut in total state spending. It provides for a 13% increase in the defense budget and 65% of that of internal security.
The head of democrats in the Senate immediately denounced Donald Trump’s text and projects. “His policy is nothing more than an attack in good standing against the Americans who work hard, said Chuck Schumer in a statement. While he is the health programs, he attacks education and abolishes the programs on which families depend, he finances tax reductions for billionaires and large companies. “
