Original Note:
Biden is using the fiscal 2020 budget as his benchmark. Congress passed $2 trillion in Covid relief in March 2020, $900 billion that December, and nearly $2 trillion more in March 2021. The deficit is declining because Congress blew it out for two years on Covid spending. https://www.wsj.com/articles/joe-biden-tells-a-budget-whopper-state-of-the-union-address-deficit-11646263039
