The President's Budget for Fiscal Year 2012 represents his blueprint for America's future that the White House sends to Congress each year. To win the future, we have to out-innovate, out-educate and out-build the rest of the world, tapping the creativity and imagination of our people. We have to take responsibility for our deficit, by investing in what makes America stronger and cutting what doesn't. And we have to reform our government so that it's smarter, leaner, and better able to take on the challenges of the 21st century. The President's Budget is his plan to do just that. The full Budget and additional information is available at WhiteHouse.gov/winning-the-future.
