- White House budget director advocates more funding for own agency, cuts for others
White House budget director Russell Vought testified that his agency, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), requires increased funding to update systems and expand staff, despite having unspent funds from a previous Republican-approved law. The Trump administration’s 2027 budget proposal includes a 10% cut to domestic spending and a $1.5 trillion defense budget increase, affecting agencies like Agriculture, Health and Human Services, and the World Trade Center Health Program.
