Cut Planned in NY

New York state's proposed budget would cut $14 million in funding for tuition at the state's unique schools, including those for the deaf. The cost of attending some of these schools can range from $40,000 a year to more than $100,000. A group of parents and educators will meet with some 70 legislators this Wednesday to plead their case. The next day, the group plans to travel to Albany and hold a rally at the legislative building.
