Bush budget cuts threaten education and entitlements
A Center on Budget and Policy Priorities analysis finds Bush cap proposals would slash education by 11.5 billion, WIC by 658 million, Head Start by 3.3 billion, clean water and air by 6.4 billion, and community development by 9.2 billion across five years.

David Walker of GAO cautions that reform is urgent and Bush offers little leadership.
