Why the fuck would you cut that program in the first fucking place?!?
Cruelty.
Or Russia.
Same thing.
Well, it was a stupid thing to try because it immediately sends the message that you don’t care about a) first responders b) 9/11
The only other budget cut I can think of right now that would create less favorable publicity is, if they cut all the funding to the VA, or more specifically to the VBA(which is in charge of distributing funds to people with disabilities due to being deployed or enrolled in military service ) 
Don’t forget stupidity.
Hanlon’s Razor fails us here.

Didn’t it take forever and many battles to even establish to begin with?
Maybe they thought it would just go quietly into the night.
NEVER FORGET
Well, maybe once… for a week… as a treat.
Republicans want you to forget until they need you to remember so that they can trick you into voting against your own interests
