categories - Custom query using one category that is used in all custom post types

I need some help from someone who can look at the code template below and see what I apparently still have wrong. I've been working on getting a template setup for a site that is using TwentyTwelve as its base. This template would call up all post types but using only a common single category. I thought I had it nailed in tests two years ago, but the client is now getting around to using it and reports that it isn't working.

An answer that someone else gave was to use this in the args:

$args = array(
      'post_type' => 'any', //or use cpt slug as string, or array of strings if multiple
      'category_name' => 'budgeting', // <-- EDIT CATEGORY SLUG HERE. Must be all lower case and with dashes if there are any, exactly as it appears in the category listings. Be careful not to delete the single quotes!
    );

Example: A template that uses the category of "budgeting" shows 24 posts, and the site has 20 regular posts and 6 of another post type using that same category. So it seems to be working because it is showing more than 20 posts. The template:

<?php
/**
 * Template Name: Category - Budgeting
 *
 * ^^^ THIS IS THE TEMPLATE TITLE THAT APPEARS IN THE DROPDOWN ON A PAGE EDITING AREA. KEEP THE ASTERISKS.
 *
 * The template for displaying all pages.
 *
 * This is the template that displays all pages by default.
 * Please note that this is the WordPress construct of pages
 * and that other 'pages' on your WordPress site will use a
 * different template.
 *
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Twenty_Twelve
 * @since Twenty Twelve 1.0
 */

get_header(); 

    $args = array(
      'post_type' => 'any', //or use cpt slug as string, or array of strings if multiple
      'category_name' => 'budgeting', // <-- EDIT CATEGORY SLUG HERE. Must be all lower case and with dashes if there are any, exactly as it appears in the category listings. Be careful not to delete the single quotes!
    );


    // This query should now only have the post_type in the args above.
    $this_query = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>

                    elseif ( is_month() ) :
                        printf( __( 'Monthly Archives: %s', 'twentytwelve' ), '<span>' . get_the_date( _x( 'F Y', 'monthly archives date format', 'twentytwelve' ) ) . '</span>' );
                    elseif ( is_year() ) :

When we try this with another category of "College Education", there are 8 regular posts and 4 of another post type in the system with 'college-education' as the slug. But only 8 posts show up in the page when the template is used with that slug in place. We should be seeing twelve posts. So this isn't working.

Could someone advise me if you see something that shouldn't work? We thought we had nailed this but it's not working.
