☆ Another Red-Blue Divide: Money to Feed Kids in the Summer
  + stars: | 2024-04-09 | by ( Jason Deparle | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
The governor was firm: Nebraska would reject the new federal money for summer meals. He would not sign on to a program to provide all families that received free or cut-rate school meals with cards to buy groceries during the summer. “I don’t believe in welfare,” the governor, Jim Pillen, a Republican, said in December. “Sometimes money isn’t the solution,” the governor replied. A week later, Mr. Pillen made a U-turn the size of a Nebraska cornfield, approving the cards and praising the young people for speaking out.

☆ Developers Got Backing for Affordable Housing. Then the Neighborhood Found Out.

When developers set out to build 60 subsidized apartments in an affluent corner of Florence, S.C., the chairman of the County Council waxed enthusiastic. Affordable housing “would serve a great need,” he wrote, and its proximity to services and jobs fit county planning goals. Lawyers, executives and civic leaders, they gathered at the Florence Country Club, a half-mile from the proposed development, and vowed to block it. In many if not most affluent communities, existing land-use rules would have barred low-income housing, with the regulations often operating so quietly that they hide how fully exclusion is a product of design. But a quirk in the Florence County zoning code, permitting the subsidized apartments, brought the opposition into public view.

☆ Federal Policy on Homelessness Becomes New Target of the Right
  + stars: | 2023-06-20 | by ( Jason Deparle | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Vance, Republican of Ohio, used two recent hearings to argue that Housing First ignores the root causes of homelessness. The Cicero Institute, a Texas policy group, is promoting model state legislation that bars Housing First programs from receiving state funds. The escalating war over an obscure social service doctrine is partly an earnest policy dispute and partly an old-fashioned rivalry between groups seeking federal funds. “When people have a safe and stable place to live, they can address other things in their lives. If critics succeed in defunding these successful programs, we’re going to see a lot more deaths on the street.”

☆ Safety Net Barriers Add to Child Poverty in Immigrant Families

The prosperous couple were taking their 5-year-old, Gabriel, to Disney World, when they learned that intruders had broken in their house. In a country saturated with political violence, Mr. Garcia, a government computer engineer, had already survived a kidnapping. Ineligible for most aid while waiting, they were afraid to seek it anyway for fear it would harm their case. “I thought it might be illegal,” Mr. Garcia said. Until recently, Mr. Garcia drove for Uber, with net earnings of $20,000 a year.
