WaPo and Bloomberg had some pretty good infographics that break down Trump's proposed budget. Spending increases for defense and homeland security offset by cuts across the board for nearly every non-defense related domestic department. Nearly 80 programs lose federal funding while 19 agencies are completely defunded. Those 19 are:

Quote:African Development Foundation
Appalachian Regional Commission
Chemical Safety Board
Corporation for National and Community Service
Corporation for Public Broadcasting
Delta Regional Authority
Denali Commission
Institute of Museum and Library Services
Inter-American Foundation
U.S. Trade and Development Agency
Legal Services Corporation
National Endowment for the Arts
National Endowment for the Humanities
Neighborhood Reinvestment Corporation
Northern Border Regional Commission
Overseas Private Investment Corporation
U.S. Institute of Peace
U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness
Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars


Some of the education cuts:

Cuts $3.7 billion in grants for teacher training, after-school and summer programs, and aid programs to first-generation and low-income students

"Significantly" reduces federal work-study aid to college students

A lot of my lower income students who struggle take advantage of our federally funded after school program. We feed them, tutor them, and then give them transportation home. Great program. Cut.

Cuts for programs helping poor students afford college.
