A categorical grant (or grant-in-aid)
Categorical grants make sure that the national government's money is being spent explicitly on what it needs to be spent on. They give a rubric for the state governments of what they exactly want done with the grant. Hope this helped ^_^
A block grant is money from the federal government that is able to be used for broad purposes. Categorical grants are used for narrower purposes.
The national government should return power to the states.
The national government uses categorical grants to provide states with funding for specific programs or projects, which often comes with strict guidelines that shape state policy implementation. Block grants offer states more flexibility in how they allocate funds for broader purposes, but still align with federal priorities, allowing for some influence over state priorities. Federal mandates, which are requirements imposed by the national government, can compel states to adhere to certain policies or standards, often tied to funding eligibility. Together, these tools enable the federal government to guide state policies while balancing autonomy and accountability.
