read more......from wnyc.....
"As winter approaches, it will be more than the temperature that will be dropping for many low-income households. They won't be getting as much help with the heat after Congress cut more than a billion dollars from a home heating assistance program.

The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) helps households stay warm during the winter with grants from the federal government. More than 8 million households receive this assistance through LIHEAP, including nearly 1.5 million New Yorkers."
