Compose an email of two to four paragraphs to your congressperson describing what you believe the top three areas of discretiona
ry federal funding should be in comparison to what they were in the 2015 budget. Be sure to justify your responses and use citations, introductions, conclusions, transitions, topic sentences, and proper grammar.
Net interest, other income security, and defense ongoing operations are the top three discretionary spending categories in the 2015 federal budget. I believe the federal government should increase funding for military personnel, education and job training, and pollution control in future budgets. The federal government will spend $250,914 million on ongoing defense operations, equipment, and supplies, according to the federal budget for 2015. Military personnel will cost $148.125 million. Military personnel should receive more funding next year, in my opinion, because it will indirectly help to increase the nation's defense level. Education and job training are two other areas that should be prioritized. I believe that proper job training and other practical job-related courses for youth will aid in the reduction of unemployment. Investing in human labor leads to skill development, which leads to increased productivity. Finally, as the number of automobiles and factories has increased, so has the level of pollution. Investing more in pollution control measures will benefit all of us and reduce the health risks associated with pollution.
