President Trump will release his 2021 budget on Monday. A new CBPP analysis highlights five key questions to ask as you evaluate it:
- Will the budget provide information on the Administration’s promised health care plan?
- Will the budget include harsh cuts in low-income programs, such as nutrition and housing assistance?
- Will the Administration propose deep cuts over the coming decade in domestic programs funded through annual appropriations?
- Will the budget propose a significant net increase in infrastructure funding?
- Will the budget’s combination of tax cuts and program changes widen income inequality and racial disparities?
The budget will provide a roadmap of the types of policies his Administration will try to pursue this year and also illuminate the policy and budgetary changes that the Administration would likely pursue in if the President is re-elected.
