- Reposted by Deb LloydNo, Mr. Trump. We won't allow you to pay for tax breaks to billionaires by eliminating Head Start which provides early education to over 800,000 children and LIHEAP that keeps seniors and families warm in the winter. Your budget proposal is morally obscene. It must be defeated.
