Text: 57 Wilson-Coker also argues that TMA went out of existence on September 30, 2002, pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1396r-6(f). That section, however, was amended so that only those families who became ineligible for AFDC after September 30, 2003, are ineligible for TMA. In addition, Kevin Loveland, Director of Family Services for the Connecticut Department of Social Services, conceded that Connecticut continued to provide TMA for families during the period after September 30, 1992, and before the amendment on the basis of communications that the Department received from HHS. The Department continued to receive federal reimbursement for these expenditures. Finally, the parties agree that there has been a series of continuing resolutions allowing continued expenditures, although Wilson-Coker claims that these resolutions did not affect the sunset provision. Wilson-Coker thus has not established that the TMA program went out of existence on September 30, 2002. 58
