Jenkins proposes $5.1 trillion 10 year budget overhaul
U S Representative Lynn Jenkins unveils a plan to cut domestic spending by about 5.1 trillion dollars over a decade, chiefly by reforming Medicare to a premium support system for under 55 and trimming programs like Head Start and Pell Grants. The proposal aims to save Medicare for future retirees while keeping current seniors intact, as Democrats frame Ryan budget as a campaign issue. Jenkins defended the plan during a stop in Lawrence, highlighting tax relief for the wealthy and concerns over the Affordable Care Act’s impact on large employers like Lawrence Paper Co. and craft brewers seeking tax relief. She also visited Haskell Indian Nations University and met university president Venida Chenault.
