However, LWCF and CDBG are not
the only programs at risk for significant
cuts in the 112th. Programs such as 21st
Century Learning Centers, Transportation Enhancements, and other recreational trails programs are likely to be
early targets for funding cuts as Congress struggles with how to fi nance the
next transportation reauthorization without a tax increase.
Members of Congress on both sides of
the aisle are hesitant to introduce or sign
on to bills that call for new spending without identified spending cuts. It will be difficult to gain Republican support for bills
such as the Urban Revitalization and Livable Communities Act, the Moving Outdoors in Nature Act, and the No Child
Left Inside Act. Republican support will
be critical in order for these bills to move
through the legislative process, especially in the House.

What Can We Do?
Park and recreation advocates, expect
the inevitable. There will be cuts. There
might be eliminations, although we will
fight hard to prevent them. There are 96
new members of the House of Representatives and 13 new members of the
Senate, and the majority of these new
members are not familiar with our issues. Now is the time to educate these
new members about why they should
care about our issues and the economic,
social, and health benefits we deliver to
their districts and states. If you haven't yet
met with the district staff for your member of Congress, now is the time to do so.
Invite him or her to tour your facility and
offer data regarding the increased use
of your facilities, how your projects have
helped save the community money by reducing stormwater runoff, and how your
projects have helped to create local jobs.
Most of all, when preparing your talking points, discuss the savings. Show that
investments in your programs now mean
savings to government in the long run. 
