Quote America is roaring back, and now is the time to invest in the future of America.

FURTHERING OUR ECONOMIC PROSPERITY: President Donald J. Trump’s budget request will continue our economic resurgence while furthering his vision to reduce spending and invest in America.

The Trump Administration’s pro-growth policies have unleashed the American economy, creating millions of jobs and resulting in historically low unemployment.

However, the national debt – currently more than $22 trillion – remains a grave threat to our economic and societal prosperity.

This budget will address the national debt crisis while still investing in critical American priorities that will allow America to further excel in the future.

RESPONSIBLE BUDGETING: President Trump’s budget request promotes responsible Government spending by prioritizing effective programs and cutting waste.

The budget reduces nondefense programmatic spending by 5 percent below the 2019 cap level.

Proposes policies to shrink or eliminate Federal programs that fail to deliver desired outcomes for the American people.

Reduces spending by $2.7 trillion over 10 years, shrinking the deficit from nearly 5 percent of GDP in 2020 to under 1 percent of GDP in 2029. Puts the Federal budget on a path to balance within 15 years.

Sticks to the current discretionary spending caps while also providing additional defense resources through investments in Overseas Contingency Operations and emergency funding. Allows us to fund our national security needs while avoiding a costly “cap deal,” which would increase defense and nondefense spending.



INVESTMENT IN AMERICA: President Trump’s budget request reflects his commitment to defending our Nation, ending the opioid epidemic, and building a strong American workforce.
