G12

  1. What priorities seem to be most important to the President? Give evidence from your readings -- and explain why these programs might be important priorities to him.
    1. He seems to prioritize programs such as Social Security and Health programs. But, these are mandatory I think I read. So other than those he prioritizes defense spending, pell grants, and lunch for schools.
  2. What are some especially notable changes that the President proposes, compared to the previous year's budget? Why might he want to make those changes?
    1. He is decreasing the amount of money to medicare and also decreasing the amount of money to natural resources. He cut a lot of the money for defense and basically for everything except for some miscellaneous things not mentioned. 
  3. What elements of his plan will his opponents in Congress be most likely to strongly oppose? Why?
    1. Honestly, I'm not sure but I am gonna guess that it could be the cut on defense spending because they probably want to protect the U.S?
