*Congress Moves to Boost TRIO Funding, Addresses Formatting in Grant
Competitions*

The House and Senate reached an agreement regarding funding for FY17
(academic year 2017-18) over the weekend. The legislation includes a $50
million (or 5.6%) increase in TRIO funding as well as report language that
directs the Department to provide increased funding to *all* existing TRIO
grants, increase the number of grants awarded overall in the FY17
competitions, and allow for the reading of grant applications rejected for
formatting matters. (Full text of the report is available here
<http://t.congressweb.com/l/?DFNFAMIEITGJPUD>.)

The bill needs to be approved by the full House and the full Senate this
week. Please call both your Senators
<http://t.congressweb.com/l/?DFNFAMIEITDNZJG> and your House Representative
<http://t.congressweb.com/l/?DFNFAMIEITYIQHZ> to thank them for keeping
government working and urging them to vote in favor of the omnibus bill.

Thank you for all of your effective advocacy on behalf of TRIO students.

Sincerely,

Maureen Hoyler, President
Council for Opportunity in Education
