Budget of the U.S. Government, Fiscal Year 2019

"Budget of the United States Government, Fiscal Year 2019" contains the Budget Message of the President, information on the President's priorities, and summary tables. 2018 has seen boosted economic growth, the creation of more than two million jobs, and the addition of nearly $5 trillion in new wealth to the stock market. Unemployment is at a 17-year low, wages are rising, and jobs are returning to America. Starting soon, hardworking Americans are going to see increased take home pay because of the massive tax cuts and tax reform legislation that was enacted at the end of last year. President Trump's 2019 Budget builds upon the successes over the past year and rests on the following pillars of reform: (1) Ending wasteful spending; (2) Expanding economic growth and opportunity; (3) Preserving peace through strength; (4) Building the wall, dismantling transnational criminal organizations, and enforcing immigration laws; (5) Rebuilding Infrastructure; (6) Supporting American working families; (7) Protecting veterans; (8) Combating opioid addiction; (9) Fighting high medical drug prices; (10) Moving from welfare to work; (11) More pathways to affordable education and well-paying jobs; and (11) Promoting school choice.
