Washington, D.C. — The Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA) applauds the health care and welfare reforms detailed in the 2019 budget proposal released today by the Trump administration.
The budget includes key measures that will ensure the integrity of welfare programs, empower able-bodied adults to move from welfare to work, and repeal ObamaCare.
