6.2: New Priorities
Identify programs that have outlived their usefulness or are low priorities, and find opportunities to make programs more
effective and efficient.
Other Information:
Set new priorities -- There are many programs in the federal budget that began decades ago when conditions were different
and the population had different needs. Once programs begin, however, they gain supporters, and they tend to remain in the
budget. By taking a hard look at current activities, it may be possible to identify programs that have outlived their usefulness
or are low priorities, and find opportunities to make programs more effective and efficient.
