From CLASP (http://www.clasp.org/):
The budget request released last week by President Trump for fiscal year 2018 proposes to make cruel and devastating cuts to programs that support children, families, and individuals of modest means, slash investments in America’s future, and destabilize state and local budgets—which would in turn precipitate a next round of deep cuts to basic services. In addition to our overall statement offering initial analysis of the budget request, CLASP took a deeper look at specific programs being targeted:
- Trump Administration Would Cut Child Care and Early Education Investments
- Slashing the Budget on the Backs of Low-Income Students and Workers
- Trump’s Education Budget: More Inequality, Less Access for Low-Income Students
- Trump Paid Family Leave Proposal is Part of Federal Budget’s Assault on Working Families
- The President’s Budget Would be Devastating for Children with Special Needs
- CBO Report: Republican Health Bill Would Cut 14 Million People from Medicaid
