"The 2027 Budget builds on the President's vision by continuing to constrain nondefense spending and reform the Federal Government. The budget continues the Department of Education's path to elimination while also ensuring the U.S. continues to maintain the world's most powerful and capable military."
"This budget proposal is a blueprint for cutting wasteful spending, improving government efficiency, and ensuring that essential services are delivered effectively."
President Trump has submitted a budget request that continues to propose cuts to federal research agencies and the elimination of the Education Department. While he has reduced the proposed cuts to the National Institutes of Health, he still seeks to cut nondefense spending by 10 percent. The budget allocates $1.5 trillion for defense while maintaining over $75 billion for the Education Department, though many higher education programs face cuts. The proposal initiates a lengthy appropriations process requiring Congressional approval.
