Trump’s 2027 budget is out, and it’s a DISASTER for the American people. Here’s what it contains. -Cuts $240 million from the McGovern-Dole Food for Education Program. -fully eliminates the Job Corps, which provides free education and vocational training for young Americans -A $5 BILLION cut to the National Health Institute, which guts our research into curing deadly diseases -fully eliminates the Food for Peace program -$73 billion cut from housing, education, and climate programs -Cuts the EPA’s budget by HALF -Guts NASA by 23% -Cuts nearly $5 billion from USA -Cuts $354 million from historically Black colleges and universities -Cuts $204.5 million for the Community Development Financial Institutions fund, which stimulates growth in economically disadvantaged communities -Cut $10.7 billion for housing -Cut $8.5 billion for 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 document 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.
