What does voting have to do with federal funding?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

The President chooses people to lead each department of the federal govt

Republican administrations cut funding from California and sue the state to block and delay and projects that California triedsto implement. Nothing good is going to happen at the federal level but at least Democratic admin will approve grants to California

One example being California high speed rail. It had federal funding, then funding was pulled, then it came back, and we'll see what happens next. This of course delays the project

California is now manufacturing generic insulin that will be sold at cost. A Republican federal govt would try to block this
