Abstract	President George W. Bush submitted his eighth and final budget request to the Congress on Monday. Under the proposal, fiscal year 2009 discretionary spending--spending subject to annual appropriations--would be at the same level as in the prior year for domestic programs and agencies not involved in homeland security efforts. The budget request for the Department of Education fits this general theme. Fiscal year 2009 discretionary spending at the Department of Education would total $59.2 billion, the same level of funding provided in 2008. Despite requesting level funding for the agency as a whole, the administration proposes increases for a number of its existing priority programs, as well as significant funding reductions or eliminations for others. In general, there are few new initiatives or programs proposed--most of the "new" education proposals have been included in previous budget requests. (ERIC).
