10 things states can do now to help alleviate state budget challenges by protecting the safety net and encouraging work

Today, states are facing the perfect storm: budget deficits, business closures, unemployment, and increased welfare dependency.  While any of these would be considered a major challenge for elected leaders, this combination calls for a thoughtful and deliberate review of strategies to manage some of the largest drivers of state budget spending – Medicaid and other welfare programs.

In this session, the Foundation for Government Accountability will show you how to tackle budget shortfalls head-on and put your state budget back on the path to prosperity.
