“President Biden has often said, ‘Don’t tell me your priorities - show me your budget, and I’ll tell you your priorities.’ Well today, the President’s priorities were abundantly clear - investing in American jobs and manufacturing, fighting the climate crisis, protecting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, and doing it all while paying down the deficit,” said Rep. Blunt Rochester. “The budget the White House put forward today makes meaningful investments in the priorities the American people care about most and builds on the work of already paying down $1.7 trillion of the deficit, setting us on a responsible fiscal path for decades to come. Now it’s time to see a budget from our Republican friends, so we know what their priorities are.”
