House GOP exposes 'woke' items in Biden's $7.3 trillion budget

House Republicans are circulating a new memo highlighting "woke programs" President Biden is seeking to fund in his massive fiscal year 2025 budget proposal.

The document pointed to $3 billion for the State Department to "advance gender equity and equality worldwide," as well as $1.5 billion for the Transportation Security Administration’s "pay equity initiative."

It also mentioned $11 billion that Biden wants for the Department of Interior to "preserve the stories of the cultures and history across America."

On climate change, Biden is seeking $8 billion for his American Climate Corps, aimed at hiring 50,000 new staffers by 2031 to "mobilize a new, diverse generation of… climate resilience workers," according to Arrington’s memo.

"Budgets are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet – they are a set of values and principles – and based on his FY25 budget, it is clear President Biden values a bigger, more radical, and more powerful federal government over the freedom, safety and economic security of his fellow Americans," Arrington told Fox News Digital.

The budget is largely symbolic and has virtually no chance of passing the Republican-controlled House. 

However, it is a significant part of the president’s pitch to voters as he seeks to win another term in November.

Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment on Arrington's memo.
