R. Blackwell City Manager Lubbock, Texas 79408 Dear Bill: As a result of House and Senate action last week, Congress has approved an appropriation of $1 billion for emergency unemploy- ment relief to the states, cities, and local communities. Since Texas is not one of the states where unemployment is considered to be heavy, the bill will have only minor impact in most areas of Texas. I am attaching a copy of the author- ization act which is the basis for the $1 billion appropriation which has been made. Section 5 of the authorizing legislation provides $750 million of which $600 million is allocated on the basis of a formula and $150 million is to be made available as the Secretary of Labor deems appropriate. Section 6 of the authorizing legislation provides $250 million for areas of substantial unemployment --that is, areas where unemployment has been equal to or in excess of 6 percent. In connection with the funds available under Section 5, the .Department of Labor has worked out a formula for allocation of the $600 million which indicates that Texas would have an entitlement of $11,780,000. During consideration of the appropriation bill I voted for an amendment which would have. doubled this entitlement, but it was defeated by a vote of 212-172. In order to participate in this program, cities of more than 75,00.0. will make application through the mayor or through some other local government agency. It is anticipated that'the applications for cities and counties under 75,000 will be made by the local communities through the Governor to the Department of Labor. ITEM 4 g f • Mr. W. R. Blackwell -2- August 9, 1971 It should be pointed out that there are about 5 million,:: unemployed people in the country, and it is estimated that perhaps not more than 150,000 would probably secure employ- ment through this legislation. Under these circumstances it is evident that this bill, insofar as relieving unemploy- ment is concerned, could not be characterized as more than "a drop in the bucket." E I am fearful that this program will not be too workable. In fact, I am very fearful that a mistake has been made in authorizing such a program. Nevertheless, we have it, and I felt our area should be aware of the program and should be in a position to take appropriate steps. As indicated, ;... applications would be made directly to the Department of Labor in Washington, D. C., except in those instances where the application would be made to the Department through the Governor of the state. Si�n�derely,eAd George Maa'iY attachment cc: Honorable James H.
