The President- My fellow Americans,

0-01

Each month families across the country work very,

0-05

very hard to balance their budgets and to make the

0-08

tough choices necessary to take care of their loved

0-11

ones and to give their children opportunities

0-14

they never had before.

0-16

This is who we are as Americans - we take pride

0-19

in leaving each new generation a better

0-21

country than the one we inherited.

0-24

Yet for decades, Washington has refused to

0-26

make the tough choices.

0-28

As a result, the American Dream has slipped from the

0-30

grasp of more and more of our people.

0-33

This has to change.

0-34

We need a government that spends on the right things

0-37

- the safety, security, and well-being of our

0-39

people - and stops the waste and abuse of

0-42

taxpayer funds, whether in America or in global

0-46

projects overseas - of which, perhaps, there

0-49

are too many.

0-50

My administration is laying a new foundation to

0-53

build a future of economic prosperity and

0-56

achieve American Greatness.

1-00

The budget we are proposing will reverse

1-02

economic stagnation and open the path to millions

1-05

of new jobs for American workers.

1-08

We will balance the budget without making cuts in

1-10

Social Security and Medicare.

1-13

We will achieve our goals by doing exactly what you

1-16

do in your home- setting priorities, cutting the

1-19

fat, and growing new opportunities.

1-22

And the big thing for me is economic growth, which

1-26

is not possible without safety and security.

1-30

We will grow our economy; it is growing already.

1-33

It will grow faster than you've seen it in decades.

1-36

That is why our budget reverses years of cuts to

1-40

our military that have made us less safe in a

1-43

more dangerous world.

1-44

We are going to make sure the men and women on the

1-47

front lines of freedom have the tools they need

1-50

to keep us safe and totally secure.

1-53

At home, we are going to give our ICE officers -

1-55

who have done an incredible job - and our

1-57

Border Patrol agents - who are amazing people -

2-01

everything they need to end the lawlessness

2-03

once and for all.

2-05

It is our moral duty to keep our citizens safe and

2-09

free, and to protect the right of every American to

2-12

pursue their dreams.

2-14

We don't want MS-13 roving our streets, we're getting

2-18

rid of them by the thousands, they're going

2-21

to be out of here.

2-22

But I'm proud to tell you that the first budget we

2-25

are releasing provides a firm new foundation for

2-29

the safety, and also for jobs and prosperity for

2-33

all Americans in the years to come.

2-36

Thank you very much.

2-37

You're going to love the end result.
