GOP Slams Biden’s $7.3 Trillion Budget Filled with ‘Woke’ Programs

House Republicans are calling out loads of woke nonsense in President Biden’s proposed $7.3 trillion budget, igniting a fierce debate over the administration’s spending priorities, Fox News reports.

Biden’s 188-page budget proposal, released Monday, outlines approximately “$5 trillion in tax increases overall,” with a focus on corporations and the top 2% of earners. However, House Budget Committee Chairman Jodey Arrington, R-Texas, has drawn attention to the allocation of funds towards ideologically-driven projects.

Arrington’s memo highlights billions directed towards green energy and equity programs.

Notably, the proposal includes $3 billion for gender equity initiatives, $1.5 billion for pay equity within the Transportation Security Administration, and $11 billion for preserving cultural heritage across America.

The budget also allocates significant funds to address climate change, with $8 billion earmarked for the American Climate Corps and $10.6 billion for clean energy research and development at the Department of Energy.

Critics argue that these allocations reflect a prioritization of progressive policies over fiscal responsibility, particularly as the national debt approaches $34.5 trillion and the budget deficit stands at $531 billion.

Arrington emphasized the symbolic nature of the budget, recognizing its unlikelihood of passing through the Republican-controlled House. However, he condemned Biden’s budget as a reflection of misplaced priorities, asserting,

“Budgets are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet – they are a set of values and principles – and based on his FY25 budget, it is clear President Biden values a bigger, more radical, and more powerful federal government over the freedom, safety and economic security of his fellow Americans.”
