| 3 | deana | lewis | CA | US | instead of hiding behind nclb, congress should step up and fund programs that are proven to work for students. taking away funding for trio programs is unethical and wrong. |
| 4 | Lee | Fulmer | AZ | US | |
| 5 | Daniel | Castilllo | CA | US | Please do not cut Upward Bound. I see the magic that this program does for low-income students. Many times these programs are the only opportunity this kids/veterans have for a shot at higher education. If we want to save America we must start with educating our young not just our rich young. |

| 22 | Francisco | Banuelos | CA | US | These programs have assisted thousands of socially disadvantaged students to achieve educational equity. It is a sad moment in time when a proposed budget threatens to end such programs that have a history of providing opportunities to the low-income population. |

I see so much potential in the student who are with Upward Bound right now. This is great program. |

| 33 | Hector | Lujan | AZ | US | |
| 34 | Sueleen | Abraham | HI | FM | I strongly believed that if the congress will do all their best in giving all the TRIO Programs such as (UB, Gear-up, VUB, MSUB,TSP, and others) in the Fiscal Year 2006, then all the programs will be giving all their best in accomplish the goals they were looking forward to accomlish... |
