[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who thinks the DCTAG tuition program will continue past this year is insane. It is zeroed out in Trumps draft budget and there are no GOP champions of the program left on Hill (Boehner was last one - Ryan doesn't support).[/quote]

I don't doubt your assertion, but could you provide a source for this?  I did not see it in the Heritage Foundation 2017 Budget Blueprint, which I think is what is being used as Trump's draft budget.  I see some changes to the DC Opportunity Scholarship Program for vouchers, which doesn't surprise me.  If it really has been zeroed out someplace in writing, we need to know so we can start our advocacy push on it.  Thanks.  [/quote]

So it was a Republican idea that all the D.C. liberal families cashed in on? Sometimes D.C. is so funny. Better get on the phone and start calling those Republicans and tell them you don't hate all of their ideas...[/quote]

I don't know if it was a Republican proposal and I am not sure where that idea came across in my comment.  DC Opportunity Scholarship program is different than DC TAG.  DC TAG could have been a Democratic idea, could have been Republican.  That wasn't the point of this comment; the point was that it is a long-established programs and Republicans are more likely than Democrats to zero it out at this moment.  [/quote]
