During the presidency of Ronald Reagan, each year he would submit a
budget and congress would modify that budget.  For each of the 8 years
how much did he ask for and what amount did Congress actually pass?

Hello laser106-ga and thanks for your question.


I located this chart below showing Reagan’s proposed budget and the
actual Congress outlay for each of the 8 years.
