President Joe Biden<\/a> on Monday released a budget proposal aimed at getting voters\u2019 attention: It would offer tax breaks for families, lower health care costs, smaller deficits and higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlikely to pass the House and the Senate to become law, the proposal for fiscal 2025 is an election year blueprint about what the future could hold if Biden and enough of his fellow Democrats win in November. The president and his aides previewed parts of his budget going into last week\u2019s State of the Union address<\/a>, and they provided the fine print on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the Biden budget became law, deficits could be pruned $3 trillion over a decade. It would raise tax revenues by a total of $4.9 trillion over that period and use roughly $1.9 trillion to fund various programs, with the rest going to deficit reduction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden aides said their budget was realistic and detailed while rival measures from Republicans were not financially viable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCongressional Republicans don\u2019t tell you what they cut, who they harm,\u201d White House budget director Shalanda Young said. \u201cThe president is transparent, details every way he shows he values the America people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-Louisiana, issued a joint statement with other GOP leaders calling the Biden proposal a \u201cglaring reminder of this Administration\u2019s insatiable appetite for reckless spending.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBiden\u2019s budget doesn\u2019t just miss the mark \u2014 it is a roadmap to accelerate America\u2019s decline,\u201d the House Republican leaders said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the proposal, the government would spend $7.3 trillion next fiscal year and borrow $1.8 trillion to cover the shortfall from tax receipts. Biden\u2019s 188-page plan covers a decade\u2019s worth of spending, taxes and debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parents could get an increased child tax credit in 2025, as payments would return briefly to the 2021 level funded by Biden\u2019s coronavirus pandemic relief package. Homebuyers could get a tax credit worth up to $10,000 and $10 billion in down payment aid for first-generation buyers. Corporate taxes would jump upward, while billionaires would be charged a minimum tax of 25%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden said in his State of the Union that Medicare should have the ability to negotiate prices on 500 prescription drugs, which could save $200 billion over 10 years. Aides said his budget does not specify how many drug prices would be subject to negotiations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The president is traveling Monday to Manchester, New Hampshire, where he\u2019ll call on Congress to apply his $2,000 cap on drug costs and $35 insulin to everyone, not just people who have Medicare. He\u2019ll also seek to make permanent some protections in the Affordable Care Act that are set to expire next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden\u2019s plan would permanently keep Medicare solvent, according to aides, but as noted by Maya MacGuineas, president of the fiscal group Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, it does not appear to fix Social Security, which projections say will be unable to pay full benefits starting in 2033<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The proposal would provide about $900 billion for defense in fiscal 2025, about $16 billion more than the baseline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Biden administration is still seeking money to help Ukraine<\/a> defend itself against Russia and aid for Israel. His budget plan reiterates the supplemental funding request<\/a> made last October for Ukraine, Israel and humanitarian relief for Palestinians<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also requesting funding to expand personnel and resources at the U.S. southern border. Still, military spending over 10 years would decline $146 billion to $9.57 trillion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One key theme in the budget plan is an effort to help families afford their basic needs, as the impact of inflation hitting a four-decade high<\/a> in 2022 continues to leave many voters feeling as though they\u2019re worse off under Biden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The budget proposal includes $258 billion to help build or preserve 2 million homes, helping to address a national shortage that has kept housing prices high. Parents making under $200,000 annually would have access to child care, with most eligible families paying no more than $10 a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It would eliminate origination fees on government student loans, possibly saving borrowers $1,000 over the life of the debt. It also includes $12 billion to help universities develop strategies for reducing their costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All of this is a chance for Biden to try to define the race on his preferred terms, just as the all-but-certain Republican nominee, Donald Trump<\/a>, wants to rally voters around his agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA fair tax code is how we invest in things that make this country great: health care, education, defense and so much more,\u201d Biden said at Thursday\u2019s State of the Union address, adding that his predecessor enacted a $2 trillion tax cut in 2017 that disproportionately benefited the top 1% of earners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump, for his part, would like to increase tariffs and pump out gushers of oil. He called for a \u201csecond phase\u201d of tax cuts as parts of his 2017 overhaul of the income tax code would expire after 2025. The Republican has also said he would slash government regulations. He has also pledged to pay down the national debt, though it\u2019s unclear how without him detailing severe spending cuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to do things that nobody thought was possible,\u201d Trump said after his wins in last week\u2019s Super Tuesday nomination contests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

House Republicans on Thursday voted their own budget resolution<\/a> for the next fiscal year out of committee, saying it would trim deficits by $14 trillion over 10 years. But their measure would depend on rosy economic forecasts and sharp spending cuts, reducing $8.7 trillion in Medicare and Medicaid expenditures. Biden has pledged to stop any cuts to Medicare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Congress is still working on a budget for the current fiscal year<\/a>. On Saturday, Biden signed into law a $460 billion package to avoid a shutdown of several federal agencies, but lawmakers are only about halfway through addressing spending for this fiscal year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
