Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO discussed the consolidation of federal categorical programs into block grants to states and localities, focusing on states' previous experience with block grants. GAO noted that: (1) the 15 current block grant programs total $32 billion and constitute 11 percent of federal aid to states; (2) in 1981, Congress consolidated about 50 categorical programs into 9 block grants and also reduced their funding by an average of 12 percent; (3) although the block grants eliminated many federal reporting requirements, many states continued their prior levels of data collection for their own management purposes; (4) in general, the 1981 transition from categorical programs to block grants was smooth because the states had experience in operating programs in most of the covered areas; (5) states replaced much of the 1981 funding reductions with carryover funds from the programs and additional state revenues; (6) the lack of comparability of state data limited federal policymakers' ability to make decisions concerning funds allocation, individual state's needs, and program effectiveness; (7) Congress recatagorized some funding because the states were not meeting national needs with the block grants; and (8) if Congress decides to create new block grants, it needs to ensure accountability for results and fair allocation of funds, and to consider how the differences in the size and structure of the programs to be consolidated from those consolidated in 1981 will impact states' ability to manage the transition to block grants.

Book excerpt: The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) is an independent agency that works for Congress. The GAO watches over Congress, and investigates how the federal government spends taxpayers dollars.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO provided information on federal block grant programs, focusing on: (1) states' experiences operating block grants; and (2) lessons learned that could be useful to Congress as it considers new block grants. GAO found that: (1) 15 block grants with funding of $32 billion constituted a small portion of the total federal aid to states in fiscal year 1993; (2) in 1981, Congress created 9 block grants from about 50 categorical programs to broaden program flexibility among states; (3) the states' transition to block grants was generally smooth, since the states had existing management and delivery systems for most programs, but they had difficulties in two areas because these categorical programs were entirely federally funded or directed; (4) states reported administrative efficiencies with block grants, but documenting the cost savings was difficu

This report summarizes information on federal block grant programs, assesses the experience of the states operating under them and identifies lessons learned that can be useful to the Congress as it considers creating a new set of block grants.
