Republican leaders label current welfare an ugly crisis of failure and unveil a 10 point plan to shift eligibility to need, boost education and training, preserve family integrity, and expand work incentives. The proposal, drafted by Don Paarlberg and the party task force, urges job surveys, child care, work training linked to jobs, and broader Social Security support while urging nongovernmental resources to aid job opportunities for the disadvantaged.

Congress Pours Money Into Home State Projects

A study of the 90th Congress first session shows lawmakers advocating cuts while approving unbudgeted funding for home state interests. Passman pushed a $1 billion foreign aid cut yet won a $46,000 seawall in Monroe Louisiana. Colmer sought $728,000 to dredge a Mississippi Gulf Coast channel. Tower backed Trinity River Basin planning and Red River study funding. The pattern shows lawmakers balancing national economy aims with district favors amid debates over SST funding and large defense outlays.
