| Summary | This investigation showed how, even though the Bush administration claims an increase in national park funding, many parks are actually seeing budget cuts. The reason for this discrepancy is that, while most of the parks are receiving less money, about one quarter of all national parks are receiving extra funds to protect against terrorist attacks. Those parks are "national icon" parks like the Statue of Liberty and the Gateway Arch in St. Louis. |
