The devil is in the details when it comes to the budget deal hammered out last Friday night. Philantrophy.com reports:

The program that President Obama singled out in his State of the Union address for a deep spending cut-Community Services Block Grants-fared relatively well in the 2011 budget deal that was hatched by lawmakers last week.

The program, which provides money to a network of community-action agencies across the country, would get $680-million for the fiscal year that ends September 30, according to details of the bill provided by the Senate Appropriations Committee. While that is $20-million less than in 2010, the cut comes nowhere near the $350-million that Mr. Obama said he wanted to trim in his 2012 budget plan. (emphasis added)
