Oklahoma’s Kevin Stitt is arguing governors — like him — should play a role in helping the Trump administration decide when and how to shut off the flow of money into states’ budgets.
“I think states need a seat at the table when we’re talking about spending cuts. That’s the big, big conversation,” Stitt told NOTUS on Monday, adding that block grants would help states meet the needs of their residents while still making cuts possible.
In Washington, some members of the Oklahoma delegation say he shouldn’t count on it.
