Sequestration 2013 • Sequestration's across-the-board cuts would devastate non–defense discretionary programs. • Funding for Pell Grants is exempt from automatic cuts in FY 2013, but many other programs vital to community college student success and institutional improvement would be sliced by 8.2%. Including: TRIO, GEAR UP, Perkins Career and Technical Education, Adult Education, Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training Grants, Workforce Investment Act programs, and many more. • Cuts of this magnitude would severely impair the ability of community colleges to provide Americans with the education and skills they need for the 21st-century economy.
