"Today, @POTUS submitted to the Congress a strong, visionary budget request that would make progress #ForThePeople. As our nation continues our record-setting recovery from the pandemic, the Biden budget would help meet the needs of America's families.
This bold fiscal blueprint proposes deeply needed investments in communities across the country to help lower the everyday costs weighing on families, grow workers' paychecks and create good-paying jobs -- all while ensuring the wealthiest few pay their fair share.
The investments proposed in the #BidenBudget demonstrate a strong focus on ensuring community safety, with more investments in police and violence prevention. It would also invest in national security, as America continues to counter Russia's unprovoked war in Ukraine.
Democrats' commitment to fiscal responsibility has put the nation on track to slash the deficit by an historic $1.3 trillion this year, and this proposal aims to build on that progress by further reducing the deficit by more than $1 trillion over the next decade.
@POTUS' budget honors this truth: our federal budget must be a statement of our national values. The Congress looks forward to working with the @WhiteHouse to pass a budget that will serve as a crucial foundation for our work #BuildingABetterAmerica."
