President Donald Trump’s 2027 budget includes massive funding cuts for programs pushing ideologies “that poison the minds of Americans,” according to a fact sheet obtained by The Daily Signal.
Under the leadership of Director Russ Vought, the White House’s Office of Management and Budget released its fiscal year 2027 budget Friday, stating plans to “eliminat[e] funding for cultural Marxism.”
The budget calls for non-defense discretionary spending to be cut 10%, as opposed to 20% last year.
The budget cuts $106 million from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, which funded a project at Seattle Children’s Hospital titled, “Using Telehealth to Improve Access to Gender-Affirming Care for BIPOC and Rural Gender-Diverse Youth.”
The budget also asks Congress to eliminate the agency’s “digital health portfolio,” which it says included an AI tool to help 15- to 25-year-olds with “sexual health decision making.”
The agency also funded an online tool called “ContraceptionForAll” to help females identifying as males choose contraception, and a study on how Medicaid “gender-affirming care” coverage policies impacted the use of hormones and sex-change surgeries among beneficiaries, according to the fact sheet.
Trump wants to cut all funding for the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education because “the Congress has abused these funds by directing them to fund initiatives unrelated to students or institutional reforms.” This includes $1.2 million for San Diego Community College’s LGBTQIA+ pride Center staffing, according to the fact sheet.
The budget also eliminates awards to Community Development Financial Institutions. Former Vice President Kamala Harris had announced $1.73 billion in grants to 603 institutions in 2023 to build “a more equitable, resilient economy.”
“Terminating this fund would also prevent taxpayer dollars from forwarding gender extremism, including an LQBTQ+ clinic in Detroit, transgender housing initiatives, and a fashion show promoting transgender awareness,” the fact sheet says.
The budget eliminates the Department of Justice’s Community Relations Service and Office of Access to Justice.
“Each is a woke enterprise that fails to serve the core function of DOJ to fight crime and protect U.S. communities,” the fact sheet says.
Community Relations Service has the job of “preventing and resolving racial and ethnic tensions, incidents, and civil disorders, and in restoring racial stability and harmony,” while the Office of Access to Justice executes “access to justice policy initiatives.” According to OMB, “this means helping Non-Governmental Organizations and their lawyers to interfere with Government processes and prevent justice from being delivered effectively.”
Trump also wants to eliminate funding for the Department of Education’s Equity Assistance Centers.
“This program has been weaponized to force local districts to implement Washington-directed DEI practices against their will,” the fact sheet says. “Examples of weaponized grant programming include equity audits for districts to assess racism and bias; training materials for educators on white supremacy; and ‘Anti-Racism Committee’ groups for districts.”
The budget ends Department of Housing and Urban Development grants for racial, gender, and climate goals. For example, the department provided $5 million to the City of Seattle to “redress past harms” through a “Legacy Homeowner Program” that prioritized Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) residents “at risk of displacement.”
The department also gave Los Angeles $6.7 million for housing, including an “Equity Audit to reverse land use patterns that have roots in systemically racist policies.“ Milwaukee received $2.1 million to solve racial disparities in home ownership.
The budget would end $70 million in funding for the Teacher Quality Partnership Program, which OMB says was used to indoctrinate new teachers.
“Training materials in these ‘partnerships’ included topics such as Critical Race Theory, DEI, social justice activism, ‘anti-racism,’ and instruction on white privilege and white supremacy,” the fact sheet says.
The budget terminates the Environmental Protection Agency Environmental Justice Program, which claimed minorities were especially vulnerable to “climate change” because of their dependence on “climate-sensitive resources” like food and water.
Trump also seeks to eliminate the Minority Business Development Agency, after a district court in 2024 found the agency’s presumption of “social disadvantage based on race or ethnicity” in its funding decisions to be unconstitutional.

Finally a step in right direction, why should millions of dollars meant to be spent on life threatening situations be spent at the whim of a handful mentally disturbed, pushing their poisonous agenda. They need a psychiatrist not surgeon.
‘The budget terminates the Environmental Protection Agency Environmental Justice Program, which claimed minorities were especially vulnerable to “climate change” because of their dependence on “climate-sensitive resources” like food and water.!
I guess the people at the EPA im their years of education and running the agency have come to the conclusion that non-minorites aren’t dependent on food and water. Geez what a bunch of morons running this country.
We know that the Democrats will drag their feet on this budget proposal until midterm election is over with in hopes that they can regain dominance in the House and Senate. Then they will pass what they want and go for impeaching President Trump and the VP, so their House majority leader can put the Democrats back into the White House.
Everything Pres Trump touches is good for humans on Earth. Everything Dems touch is not.
Can anyone tell me what a lqbtq+,or whatever, clinic is? To put money into something like this is absurd. It’s no wonder congress can’t pass a budget, too much BS, not enough of the essential stuff, like defense of this country. If they can’t pass a budget, they should not be paid, that is one of their primary duties every year. They have not done this, and should not be paid, nor receive any office allowances or any expense reimbursements. Our congress has become a national embarrassment.
No one race should be treated any different than another race. I’ve always thought that affirmative action was just prejudice.So I’m all for Trump doing what he’s doing.
The founding fathers wouldn’t believe it was right and God like and neither should we!
Another step taken as a result of DOGE findings no doubt. Shrinking government is beneficial to We The People for multiple reasons, not just to save taxpayers.
POTUS truly is taking steps to MAGA. (Now if he could take steps to curb some of his choices of denigrating words at times…)
