With even leading Republicans openly commenting that the President's budget is DOA, it is instructive to note that this fiscal proposal, cruel in its prescriptions for the most vulnerable, rely on a math "gimmicks" and hurt the people most likely to vote for the President. While it might be tempting for Progressives and Democrats to quietly hope this monstrosity passes and let the chips fall where they may, that is not a recipe for good governance and the Democrats should publicly publish their own budget proposal, perhaps drawing ideas from the progressive caucuses "People Budget" and the Center for American Progress's "Marshall Plan for America." Voters need to know not only what we are against but what we are for.
