Cuts Could Cancel Egg Roll

First the White House tours were canceled and now the Easter Bunny could be axed as well.  A White House official says that all Easter Egg Roll ticket holders have been alerted that the event is subject to cancellation due to funding uncertainty, including the possibility of a government shutdown.  A partial shutdown would occur if Congress fails to extend funding by the March 27th deadline.  Earlier this month, the White House suspended public tours through September because of forced spending cuts which took effect March 1st. The Easter Egg Roll is tentatively set for April 1st.
