Summary

Limits federal grant payments to a State to no more than 3 years, and the Secretary must review the payments every year. To get a grant, a State must share the cost. In year 1 the federal share cannot exceed 75% (the State must provide at least $25 for every $75 federal). In year 2 the federal share cannot exceed 65% (State at least $35 per $65). In year 3 the federal share cannot exceed 55% (State at least $45 per $55). State contributions can be cash or real items or services, if their value is fair. Money or services paid or largely paid by the federal government cannot count toward the State’s share.
