Senior administration officials said the initial package of proposed cuts was targeted at federal funds that were sitting unspent. antfair posted... The administration is also proposing $4.3 billion in cuts from an advanced technology vehicle loan program, which the official said had not made a loan since 2011 So like.... is ALL of this money that no one is using at all?

If that's the case then go ahead. it's safe to assume when trump admin officials say words, they are lying. more broadly, though, 'unused' funds in programs like CHIP become the last line of defense against total expiration when congress next "forgets" to reactivate it, providing a time buffer against brinkmanship. the money would be spent eventually, it's not like it's burned into ash. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

the money would be spent eventually, it's not like it's burned into ash. it mostly goes to HHS, historically https://ccf.georgetown.edu/2018/05/08/7-billion-in-chip-cuts/ The other five billion dollars in cuts are more complicated to explain. Essentially, when Congress specifies annual CHIP allotments, they leave a little wiggle room in case state spending is higher than expected. This is another part of Congressional commitment to making sure CHIP is fully funded, even though it is a block grant. Over time, this results in some CHIP funds that are authorized but not expended, resulting in budget authority that exceeds outlays. Congress is aware of this, and over the last several years, they have come to bipartisan agreements about how to reallocate this budget authority to allow for investments in other programs that serve children. Rescinding these funds is unlikely to impact states CHIP programs immediately, but it violates that bipartisan agreement in Congress to manage these funds in ways that continue to help low income children and families. --- It's one more thing we do to the poor, the deprived: cut out their tongues . . . allow them a language as lousy as their lives ...

These 'leftover' funds were one of the things the GOP wanted to cut during the CHIP fight last year that partially caused the hold up in reauthorization also btw

Myself and more specifically my younger brother were on SCHIP then eventually him with CHIP due to coming from a poor working class background. So of course rich Republicans are fine shitting on the working class citizens and Trump voters have zero issue acting as if the poor don't matter. Suburban Trump voters are totally pathetic tbh

WrkHrdPlayHrdr posted...So like.... is ALL of this money that no one is using at all? If that's the case then go ahead. right CHIP is a block grant program, and one of the knocks on block grant programs (as opposed to open ended ones like Medicaid) is that they are not responsive to changes on the ground in real time. Medicaid financing keeps coming regardless of how much you spend, but that is not true for CHIP. CHIP only has the dollars you appropriate for it and authorize it to spend. But health care spending can fluctuate wildly for various reasons, especially on the state level. For instance, if there is an outbreak of malaria or the bird flu or major natural disasters, etc., then you will probably end up spending more on health care than you normally would otherwise. So we give CHIP extra funds in order to ensure that if those things occur, kids will still be able to get health coverage We always appropriate way more funds for this than we need to because both the GOP and Democrats are rightly terrified of the constituency CHIP has, and it isn't that expensive, and you can just re-appropriate the money later. --- It's one more thing we do to the poor, the deprived: cut out their tongues . . . allow them a language as lousy as their lives ...
