    One piece of it:

    MAKING COMMUNITIES SAFER BY REDUCING GUN VIOLENCE
    The Budget supports the President’s comprehensive
    approach to improving gun safety and
    reducing gun violence, including expanded background
    checks for firearm sales, improved tracing
    and ballistics analysis, and enhanced efforts to
    keep guns out of the hands of dangerous criminals
    and other prohibited persons.
    To maximize success, the Budget combines
    these efforts with programs to improve school
    safety, enhance police officer protection, and implement
    new mechanisms to prevent the use of
    firearms by unauthorized users. It provides $112
    million in new funds to help schools develop and
    implement emergency preparedness plans, create
    safer and more nurturing school climates
    through evidence-based behavioral practices,
    provide support and services to children exposed
    to pervasive violence, collect data on school safety
    and climate, and highlight best practices regarding
    school discipline policies, including the
    equitable implementation
    of these policies. This
    investment will complement Departments of Justice,
    Health and Human Services, and Homeland
    Security programs designed to support comprehensive
    school safety strategies.
    The Budget expands mental health services for
    youth and families with a $130 million initiative
    to help teachers recognize signs of mental illness
    in students, improves mental health services for
    young people ages 16-25, and trains 5,000 more
    mental health professionals with a focus on serving
    students and young adults. The Budget also
    includes $30 million to support a nationwide violent
    deaths surveillance system and additional
    research on the causes and prevention of gun violence.
    Together, these initiatives can help identify
    mental illness early and create a clear pathway to
    treatment for those in need, increase gun safety,
    and keep communities safe from the immeasurable
    tragedies resulting from gun violence.

    If you go to pg 189 there are charts... from the looks of it, by 2021... they expect to take in twice as much money as they do this year from Income Tax!!!

    (Unless I'm reading it incorrectly)

    Basically increase spending, but lower deficit spending by doubling taxes over 7-10 years. Very nice plan...

    Wow, one thing I see in there is increased spending to train teachers to spot mental health issues with students. Can only assume that means they (teachers) will be able to recommend or refer students for mental health treatment. Cross reference that with the current "gun control" bill that is in the senate which contains a provision where anyone that has seen a shrink loses the right to possess firearms. Would not take long to disarm the population.
