Middle-Class Families And Businesses In Colorado Would Be Severely Impacted By Bush Administration's 2007 Budget
There is a consistent pattern by the Bush Administration of weakening programs that middle-class citizens depend on for economic prosperity, affordable health care and safer communities.
-Thousands of Denver area students would be unable to obtain federal student aid to pay for college or would not receive enough to meet rising tuition costs.
-Under the Bush Administration's budget, Denver Children's Hospital could lose $7 million, resulting in 84 fewer medical residents trained.
-More than 589,000 informal caregivers will not receive assistance.
-Under the Bush Administrations budget, a resource that helps Colorado police officers combat meth would be eliminated.
