In the Coalitions proposal, is 2% for national programs adequate for veterans programs?
The Coalition wants adequate technical assistance for national programs. The Department of Labor national programs received an estimated $170 Million in FUTA funding. The Coalition’s proposal gives a dedicated 2% of FUTA revenue for national programs. This would provide approximately $120 Million for Department of Labor staffing of national programs. Budget and appropriation recommendations for national veterans’ programs would be the responsibility of the US Department of Labor, just as it is today. Available funds would grow 2 to 3% a year, as FUTA revenues grow.
