Tony Woodlief breaks down how federal funding impacts state autonomy, noting that Missouri relies on federal dollars for 46% of its revenue. He explains how federal money often comes with mandates that limit state and local control, especially in education where federal funds make up just 14% but drive curriculum and policy requirements. Woodlief argues for reining in federal spending, increasing state oversight of federal grants, and restoring decision-making power to local communities.
