Democrats pan Trump's budget proposal as 'dead on arrival'
Democrats quickly panned President Trump's fiscal year 2021 budget proposal on Monday, pledging that it is "dead on arrival" on Capitol Hill.
The $4.8 trillion plan includes cuts that would break with a two-year budget deal agreed to by both the White House and congressional leadership.
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) called Trump's proposal a "double-cross" of the Americans Trump promised to help during last week's State of the Union speech.
"As typical, President Trump's budget shows his State of the Union address was lie upon lie to the American people," Schumer said in a statement.
