They don’t like this program because they have no control over the funds. And it’s an election year so they want to virtue signal on welfare and spending. But they are fine with all the other funds their states leech off the federal government.
And Pillen is an especially big hypocrite here, because he’s a total welfare queen. Farm subsidies, millions in forgiven pandemic loans, 25$ million to build a pork processing factory. Pillen loves the government teat. What a piece of shit.
