55% :ANTI-ABORTION MOVEMENT TAKES A HIT
55% : The requested boost in military spending ruffled some feathers on the Left.
50% : Despite presiding over historic levels of illegal immigration since 2021, the Biden administration proposed cuts to U.S. Customs and Border Protection's budget.
36% : Former President Donald Trump's rule change had forced Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers out of the Title X program, which conservatives considered a victory.

31% :REFUNDING THE POLICELikely in response to criticism of Democrats' "defund the police" rhetoric, from which Biden has attempted to distance his party, the budget proposal requests an increase in funding for federal and local law enforcement.
