FY2015 Budget Resolution

Apr. 10, 2014 | H.Con.Res. 96

This budget resolution would cut taxes for millionaires and corporations that send jobs overseas, and pay for those tax cuts by cutting programs that serve the middle class and low-income families. H. Con. Res 96 would cut education, research, infrastructure, and other critical investments by 30 percent over 10 years: higher education by $260 billion over 10 years; K-12 education by $85 billion; and Medicaid by $732 billion. H. Con. Res. 96 would also cut transportation investment by $52 billion in FY 2015 alone. Finally, the budget would also turn Medicare into a voucher program, raise the Medicare eligibility age to 67, and repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The resolution passed.
