[quote=Anonymous]At this point, no matter what reason was when created - the budget environment in Capitol Hill is very different now. The effect of sequestration has left all sorts of worthy programs strapped and cuts are now hitting even small programs like TAG. Unless Congress is willing to consider new revenue sources (and they won't even raise the gas tax to fund highways) things are going to get much worse. The means testing while not 'fair' is going to get worse and the program may die. What member is going to spend time fighting for wealthy (and +450K is wealthy) DC families when their own constituents are facing cuts to things like Meals on Wheels. [/quote]
