CLICK HERE TO TELL CONGRESS TO SUPPORT THE BIDEN BUDGET
President Joe Biden released his 2024 budget proposal with a clear focus on creating a more equitable economic system by increasing taxes on the ultra-wealthy and corporations, and increasing investments that help all of us, including the most vulnerable communities, families, and children. This is the responsible vision that can move us forward and leave no one behind.
$150 billion over 10 years to expand Home and Community Based Services so older people and people with disabilities can live in their communities with the help of care workers.
$600 billion over a decade to expand affordable child care for 16 million children.
Expanded health coverage for uninsured poor adults in states that have refused to expand their Medicaid programs.
200,000 additional rental vouchers, including a commitment to provide vouchers to every young person aging out of foster care, plus investments in building more affordable housing.
A commitment to protect SNAP (food stamps) from cuts and expand eligibility for people returning from incarceration, poor college students and other vulnerable people.
Those are just some of the items in President Biden’s proposed FY2024 budget, which he released last week.
