#shorts a reporter asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “for over a month now, President Biden has been saying that this budget blueprint that he’s going to release is going to have $2 trillion in deficit reduction. You guys are now saying it’s nearly $3 trillion. So could you give us a sense of how you got there and why that number has increased? Are there specific revenue raisers or spending cuts that you’ve now added that weren’t previously there?

KJP: … making the wealthy and big corporations pay their fair share without raising taxes on Americans that are making less than $400,000 … The changes that you saw from $2 trillion to $3 trillion: As we work through the budget process, the proposals that the President supported and wanted to include in this year’s budget added to nearly $3 trillion in deficit reduction.
