| #1 Ribas says the $1 check is a one-time move to leverage the federal money. He says next year the state will be able to trigger the federal assistance through a routine deposit in food stamp accounts. So let me get this straight..they had a certain budget to spend and if spent they get a refill. So they send as many stamps out as possible for a mailing list. Then they take that mailing list and multiply by cost of food stamps per year and get that money appropriated from a federal source; a dam buster? |
