Ferguson: Maryland would lose $430 million in Trump ‘skinny budget’ proposal

  • President Donald Trump proposed a 2026 federal budget outlining $430 million in cuts to Maryland, announced on May 6, 2025, impacting public services in the state.
  • The proposal aims to reduce federal spending by $163 billion to offset tax cuts and increased defense and border security funding starting October 1, 2025.
  • The budget would slash funding for Maryland's housing, energy assistance, Medicaid, and environmental programs while increasing military and Department of Homeland Security allocation.
  • Senate President Bill Ferguson called the reductions "very painful" and warned release of 300,000 from health coverage could require Maryland to cover an additional $1 billion.
  • These cuts may force Maryland lawmakers to reconsider budgets and could strain social programs and healthcare for vulnerable populations later in 2025 or beyond.
