Budgeting as usual cuts taxes but holds line on spending
In a May overview, Reagan's budget plan aims to trim federal spending by 58 billion in 1986 and 295 billion over three years, targeting programs like Job Corps and Urban Development Action Grants. The House Budget Committee counters with 56 billion in cuts and 1.65 trillion in expenditures, concentrating on defense cuts and shifting costs, while preserving some programs through accounting maneuvers. The piece argues Congress must show courage and fiscal discipline or risk continued deficit and poor budgeting.
