WASHINGTON, April 3 (Xinhua) — The White House Office of Management and Budget on Friday released its 2027 budget proposal, featuring defense spending rising to 1.5 trillion U.S. dollars, alongside major cuts to domestic programs.<\/span><\/p>\n

The budget plan builds upon the “historic 1 trillion dollars topline” provided for the national defense by requesting 1.5 trillion dollars for 2027, a 44-percent increase, wrote White House budget director Russell Vought.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the budget plan “builds on the president’s vision by continuing to constrain non-defense spending and reform the federal government,” proposing a 10-percent cut compared to 2026 non-defense levels, according to the document published on the White House official website.<\/span><\/p>\n

At a White House event Wednesday, U.S. President Donald Trump highlighted defense spending as a priority, noting that domestic responsibilities such as health care should be shifted to the states.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We’re fighting wars. We can’t take care of day care. You got to let a state take care of day care, and they should pay for it too,” Trump said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Aside from cuts to health programs, the White House budget proposal also includes cuts to refugee resettlement aid, renewable energy projects, university grants and housing programs, among others.<\/span><\/p>\n
