SU - 11th Draft

So let us put the money where the needs are. And let us put
the power to spend it where the people are.
I propose that the Congress make a $16 billion investment in
renewing State and local government -- with $5 billion of this in new
and unrestricted funds, to be used as the States and localities see
fit, and with the other $11 billion provided by converting one-third
of the money going to the present narrow-purpose aid programs into
Federal revenue sharing funds for six broad purposes - - urban
development, rural development, education, transportation, man-
power training and law enforcement -- but with the States and localities
making their own local decisions on how it should be spent.
Insul The revenue sharing proposals I send to the Congress will
include the safeguards against discrimination that accompany all
other Federal funds allocated to the States, Neither the President
nor the Congress nor the conscience of the nation can permit money
which comes from all the people to be used in a way which discrimi-
nates against some of the people.
The Federal Government will still have a large and vital role
to play in achieving our national purposes. Established functions
