The Congress to Decide the Drug Court Appropriation After the August Recess

Your Support Is Critical !

As in previous years, the Administration requested an increase in the Drug Court Discretionary Grant Program.  This year's request is in the midst of dramatic cuts and the zeroing out of 150 non-defense discretionary programs. 

On June 16, 2005, the House approved $40 million.  On June 21, 2005, the Senate Appropriations Committee approved $25 million.  In September the Congress will finalize the appropriations.  We need the help of both the House and Senate to ensure that $40 million is approved.   

It is critical that the Congress knows that you support the program.   We encourage you to send letter, set up a meeting, and/or invite them to a graduation/status hearing during the August recess.
