subsidy

Some of these choice programs rely at least in part for funding on donations offset by tax credits or philanthropy rather than a direct state subsidy.

As of last week, official data showed 1.57 million applications had been submitted for a national subsidy of $2,800 per each older vehicle traded in for a greener one.

Other models are available that enable nonprofits and others to renovate properties and keep them affordable, but their expansion is hampered by lack of public subsidy and other issues.

The law also expands eligibility for “extra help” subsidies for about 17 million low-income people in Medicare drug plans and increases the amount of the subsidy.

If funded, the proposal would lead to construction or subsidy of nearly 60,000 units of homeless housing, including 19,500 in new supportive housing developments, 12,500 through a rental assistance program and 9,200 beds in facilities providing higher levels of care for elderly and severely mentally ill residents.
