Texas Faces Fairness in Welfare Block Grant Plan
The 104th Congress pushes for a state flexible block grant system to reform welfare. Texas would see current spending of about 440 million dollars with only modest five year growth, risking inequitable funding as fast-growing states gain less per child than slow-growth states. Supplemental grants to high growth states are proposed to balance needs while pursuing reduced welfare dependency and program shrinkage.
