This week on "Off The Cuff," Allie, Stephen, and Megan bring you the latest on the government shutdown and the ripple effects that have now reached President Trump's State of the Union address—as well as his fiscal year 2020 budget proposal. Allie and Stephen give a full recap of the recently-concluded negotiated rulemaking subcommittee session on the TEACH Grant program, and Megan dives into the Pell Grant schedules that were published this week. Plus, the team unpacks a report on increased state support for public higher education, and checks in on their New Year's resolutions.
