President Joe Biden on Sunday withdrew all the spending cuts proposed by former President Donald Trump during his final days in office.

Biden said in a letter to Congress that he was reversing all 73 spending cuts that Trump had requested, which touched virtually every cabinet-level agency as well as federal programs such as the National Endowments of the Arts and Humanities.
