Trump- $ 200 Million (not taking into account deep cuts laid out in his proposed budget, which slashes Labor Department funding by 21% and guts training and employment services).
Obama- $265 Million (of which $175M was the first-ever programmatic funding for registered apprenticeships in the U.S.).
Chris Lu, Former Deputy Labor Secretary under Obama, said Trump’s executive order “is simply a funding shift from other training programs.”
