The Trump federal budget, as proposed, would amount to a double hit to Oklahoma, given state budget woes. It’s the word from the Oklahoma Policy Institute’s David Blatt, who says the cuts would hurt programs that help many people.

Blatt says without changes, the budget would entail enormous cuts to health, human services, education, infrastructure, and law enforcement.
