That seems to be what is being said by Bush’s latest budget cuts:

The Bush administration will cut counterterrorism money for police, firefighters and rescue departments next year, but not by as much as it originally proposed.

Next month the White House will request $2.2 billion to help states and cities protect against terrorist attacks in 2009, and not $1.4 billion, an administration aide told Rep.

I guess Wyoming got enough money from this so they can cut the budget – right Dick?
