2009 Funding Appropriations Updated April 15, 2008

In February 2008 the Administration released its Fiscal Year 2009 budget proposal to Congress.

Proposed cuts included eliminating the COPS program (a cut of $587 million), the JAG program (a cut of $170 million) and the LETPP program (a cut of $442 million) in addition to eliminating funding from several other local, state and tribal law enforcement programs. The House and Senate Budget Committees are currently working on their budget proposals for 2009. An amendment is currently being sponsered that requests the Bryne - JAG programs to be funded at 2007 levels of $524 million. This amendment passed the Senate Budget Committee on March 6, 2008.
