Abstract

President Biden’s 2022 budget is providing a starting step for increasing non-defense appropriations. Budget plans of the presidential administration, being under the needs of continuing struggle against pandemic, show the necessity of financing social programs after previous budget cuts, wide range measures for meeting climate changing challenges; modernizing infrastructure. Besides medical services, education, job training, assistance for needy families, the budget plans tend to support roads all over the country, traffic control, rural development, protecting environment. The Budget statement puts special attention to the American Rescue Plan, calling it turning the corner on the pandemic, economic recovery, and having in mind the priorities of this Plan. At the same time the proposed expenditures lead to facing fiscal challenges and may worsen budget deficit outlook. The costs of budget proposals may be partly offset by the growing economy; but due to Congressional Budget Office projections the budget deficit and the public debt remain huge.
