Curtis bill vs Nixon Mills plan on welfare reform
The Curtis bill challenges HEW’s push for federal control, proposing state responsibility for welfare programs, residency rule elimination, and anti fraud measures. It argues the Nixon-Mills plan expands welfare and federalization, while Curtis aims to curb costs and restore state oversight. Reagan endorses residency repeal, and conservatives tout Curtis as a constructive alternative.
