I can't copy and paste from the document and I don't want to retype it. On page 59 it says they are requesting $1.5 trillion, which is a $441 billion increase from FY 2026. But then it says "base discretionary budget authority" is $1.1 trillion, and $350 billion in additional resources for "increasing access to critical munitions and further expansion of the defense industrial base".
On page 83, it says the FY 2026 enacted amount was $1,009 billion with an increase of $440.9 billion to $1,450 billion.
There was already $155 billion allocated in FY 2026 for Working Families Tax Cut Act Funding. This amount will be cut to zero and then the new resources will be $350 billion. So the next increase will "only" be $195 billion.
Where did the WFTCA money in 2026? Supposedly for tax cuts to middle-class people. And now that will be taken away. So effectively raising taxes on the middle class to pay for the new funding.
