Golden | G000592 | golden.house.gov | golden | https://golden.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON — Congressman Jared Golden (ME-02) released the following statement today following the release of President Donald Trump’s FY 2026 budget proposal: “Right now, my focus is on opposing the GOP’s reconciliation plan to fund tax cuts for the wealthy by slashing health care for my constituents and running up the deficit. “Looking ahead to the president’s FY 2026 budget request, I can’t co-sign a plan to eliminate LIHEAP, which would leave tens of thousands of Maine households in the cold. However, there are other areas where we may be aligned; For example, I support in principle the president’s proposals to increase funding for law enforcement at our border and in our international trade. These are policy priorities I could support. “My staff and I will continue to review the details of the president’s budget request, while remaining focused on protecting health care this year.” This year, GOP majorities in Congress have pushed ahead with a budget reconciliation plan that would gut health care programs to fund the renewal of tax cuts that overwhelmingly benefit the wealthiest households. The plan would add trillions of dollars to the national deficit. Golden voted against the reconciliation plan that set Congress down this reckless path in February and again in April. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:20:29Z |
