Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year, states receive hundreds of billions of dollars in grants-in-aid from the federal government. Gubernatorial success is often contingent upon the pursuit and allocation of these grants. In Governors, Grants, and Elections, Sean Nicholson-Crotty reveals the truth about how U.S. governors strategically utilize these funds. Far from spending federal money in apolitical ways, they usually pursue their own policy interests in the hopes of maximizing their or their party’s electoral success. Nicholson-Crotty analyzes three decades of data on the receipt and expenditure of grants in all fifty states. He also draws compelling evidence from governors’ public speeches and interviews with state officials. Ultimately, he demonstrates that incumbent governors’ use of grants to deliver policies desired by core constituentsâ€�along with their opportunistic funding of public and private goods that appeal to noncore median votersâ€�enables them to increase approval, legislative success, and, ultimately, vote share for themselves or their parties. The inaugural book in the Johns Hopkins Studies in American Public Policy and Management series, Governors, Grants, and Elections is a significant and accessible work of public policy scholarship that sits at the nexus of multiple fields within political science.

This book was released on 2017-08-04 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) provides about $40 billion to the states annually to build and maintain highways and bridges through the federal-aid highway program. While this program has grown and changed over time, the federal-state relationship has been consistently one of "partnership" since 1916. DOT's FHWA has offices in all 50 states that have developed close working relationships with states. Legislation approved by the Senate in March 2012 would establish a more performance-based highway program, introducing performance measures for highways and bridges and requiring FHWA to monitor states' progress in meeting those measures. As requested, GAO examined (1) how the federal-aid highway program and FHWA's oversight have changed over time; (2) the extent to which FHWA's partnership approach produces benefits; (3) the extent to which FHWA's partnership approach poses risks; and (4) how FHWA's partnership with state DOTs could affect a transition toward a performance-based highway program. To do this work, GAO conducted site visits and a survey, reviewed relevant documentation, and interviewed FHWA and state officials. "

This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " FHWA provides funding to states to build and maintain the nation's roadways and bridges. States may then make federal funding available to a local public agency, such as a city or a county, to administer projects. FHWA estimates that 7,000 local public agencies administer such projects. FHWA has identified locally administered projects as an agency-wide, high-risk oversight area. GAO was asked to review FHWA's oversight of locally administered projects. GAO examined: (1) what is known about federal-aid projects local agencies administer; (2) what risks are presented by local agencies administering federal-aid projects and what is being done to mitigate risks; and (3) what challenges local agencies report in administering federal-aid projects. GAO conducted site visits to three states based on federal obligations and other factors. GAO analyzed FHWA obligation data, reviewed relevant documentation, and interviewed FHWA, state, and local agency officials. "
