Republican House

This is my 2nd post on the House of Representatives in a row. Ladies and Gentlemen, thanks to George's $870 million dollar prescription plan the House of Representatives voted to cut over $1 Billion dollars from other areas. http://www.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/06/24/congress.spending.ap/index.html

Now this is a case where many are going to pay for the few. Among the cuts is The cuts include the outright elimination of 48 programs whose current budgets total $1 billion. Among the programs to be eliminated is the Healthy Communities Access Program, currently funded at $83 million, which helps communities offer health care to the uninsured.

Also eliminated is the $205 million budget for an Education Department grant program targeted at low-income and underachieving schools.


You remember the "Every Child Left Behind" that Bush signed?? That budget had $806 million cut from it. Training programs for training for doctors and nurses has had it's budget cut from $300 million to $47 million so such much for better training for that nevermind we already have a shortage.

Public Broadcasting got cut $100 million but is, for now, still on the air.

Ladies and Gentlemen I urge you to contact your representative whatever party they are and indicate you will not stand for programs being cut that is an essential need for our country!
