GOP Cuts: A “Guillotine Job” on the Special Olympics | Mother Jones

But they retained the Bush Tax Cuts for Millionaires!

I would say this shows where their hearts are, if they had one….

Again, Elections have consequences!

And we are paying them…

From MotherJones:

Food safety, family planning, cancer research, and low-income housing—now add the Special Olympics to the long list of organizations and federal programs targeted for major funding cuts by congressional Republicans.

The House GOP’s budget, which passed last month, takes a hatchet to programs for disabled kids and Special Olympics athletes. The proposed cuts could force the closure of at least one Special Olympics program, which is funded through the Department of Education. Dubbed Project UNIFY, the program serves more than 750,000 students in 43 states and draws from techniques used in Special Olympics training for activities in public schools.
