"Before Congress rubber-stamps the Administration's $87 billion request,
we need answers. We need accountability. We need the truth.
The amount of money is huge.
It is more than the combined budget deficits of all 50 states for 2004.
It is 87 times what the federal government spends annually on
after-school programs.
It is 2 years worth of unemployment benefits.
It is enough to pay each of the 3.3 million people who have lost thr
jobs in the past three years more than $25,000.
It is 7 times what President Bush proposed to spend on education for
low-income schools in 2004.
It is 9 times what the federal government spends on special education
each year.
It is 8 times what the government spends on Pell Grants to help middle
and low-income students go to College.
And it is larger than the total economy of 166 nations."
