Nixon Proposes Local Authority For Job Training
President Nixon seeks to shift control of 2.3 billion dollars in federal job training funds to states and cities under a New Federalism plan. The Manpower Training Act would add 150,000 recipients to programs, with 400 million dollars more yearly, and create a national computerized job bank while matching incentives for welfare recipients and setting gradual state takeover milestones. The Labor Department would retain overarching authority and monitor states failing to meet standards as Nixon promotes economic slowdowns to curb inflation. The proposals were revealed in Washington and San Clemente, where Nixon is vacationing.
