Given current law, Texas does not stand alone in providing for its low-income residents. On which social programs does the federal government work with Texas, and how do the two governments work together?
What will be an ideal response?
The federal government makes matching funds available for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), the state Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and Medicaid programs. Whatever money the state commits to these programs, the federal government will commit at least the same amount of money in most instances. State agencies are responsible for administering these programs within Texas.
