"content": "\u003cp>Stockton’s experiment in guaranteed income — which paid more than 100 residents $500 a month with no strings attached — likely improved the recipients’ financial stability and health, but those effects were much less pronounced during the pandemic, researchers found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The study of the two-year experiment that began in 2019 shows the promise and limitations of a guaranteed income, said Amy Castro, a study author and founding director of the Center for Guaranteed Income Research at the University of Pennsylvania.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Stockton program is one of the few modern U.S. experiments in regular cash payments with complete, published results.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Castro and co-author Stacia West wrote that guaranteed income “under normative economic and health conditions, does calm income volatility and allay financial, emotional, and psychological distress.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But during the pandemic, those results were inconclusive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We were able to say definitively that there are certain changes in terms of mental health and physical health and well-being that are directly attributed to the cash,” Castro told CalMatters on Tuesday. “Year 2 (2020) showed us some of those limits, where $500 a month is not a panacea for all social ills.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Stockton pilot program kicked off a flurry of advocacy for unconditional cash programs across the country. The pandemic — along with infusions of federal aid to local governments — pushed officials and private organizations to start their own experiments giving people direct cash to alleviate poverty and financial instability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nowhere did the pilot programs take off more than in California. Earlier this year, CalMatters counted more than 40 programs that have launched or are preparing to launch this year, giving cash to more than 12,000 residents total.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Program complications\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Many of the programs target immigrants or families raising children. Seven programs the state is funding will focus on lower-income, expectant mothers or foster youth aging out of state care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a state where the cost of living drives a top-of-the-nation poverty rate, and a large share of workers who are disqualified from traditional social services due to their immigration statuses, California officials have already taken interest in direct cash programs. They’ve expanded tax credits for lower-income families and loosened stringent federal work requirements for cash welfare recipients.[aside label=\"More Stories\" tag=\"guaranteed-income\"]Unconditional cash proposals have detractors. Critics say the programs could discourage work and are too expensive. And some skeptical labor leaders say employers should be paying higher wages if their workers can’t afford basic needs. Some proponents disagree about whether guaranteed income should replace current safety-net programs or be an addition to them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Complicating the Stockton study was its relatively small sample size.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers were initially tracking more than 100 recipients, but many of those receiving the cash and those in the control group couldn’t be reached for surveys and interviews during the pandemic. As a result, the researchers saw “trends of a positive trajectory” on many measures for recipients — such as an increased ability to pay for a $400 emergency — but results were not strong enough to be statistically significant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By contrast, a recently concluded pilot program in Los Angeles included more than 3,200 recipients. The Center for Guaranteed Income Research is also studying that experiment, but there are no published results yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An initial report on the first year of the Stockton experiment showed that the group receiving payments had increased its rate of full-time employment, as some recipients used the money to complete internships or consolidate part-time shifts and gig work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The final study did not find effects on recipients’ employment to be statistically significant.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Pandemic spending\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Michael Tubbs, Stockton’s former mayor, has founded an organization that launched several other guaranteed income programs; he also advises Gov. Gavin Newsom on poverty. He said the Stockton study shows the program did not drive down employment among recipients, even during the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People did not stop working,” he said. “And people spent money on things we all spend money on. People know how to spend money.”[pullquote size='medium' align='left' citation=\"Former Stockton Mayor Michael Tubbs\"]‘People did not stop working.

The pandemic — along with infusions of federal aid to local governments — pushed officials and private organizations to start their own experiments giving people direct cash to alleviate poverty and financial instability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nowhere did the pilot programs take off more than in California.

"content": "\u003cp>California lawmakers on Thursday approved the first state-funded guaranteed income plan in the U.S., allocating $35 million for monthly cash payments to qualifying pregnant people and young adults who have recently left foster care, with no restrictions on how they spend it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The votes — 36-0 in the Senate and 64-0 in the Assembly — showed bipartisan support for an idea that is gaining momentum across the country. Dozens of local programs have sprung up in recent years, including some that have been privately funded, making it easier for elected officials to sell the public on the idea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s plan is taxpayer-funded, and could spur other states to follow its lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you look at the stats for our foster youth, they are devastating,” Senate Republican Leader Scott Wilk of Santa Clarita said. “We should be doing all we can to lift these young people up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the provisions of the bill, local governments and organizations would apply for the money and run their own programs, with the state Department of Social Services deciding on who gets the funding. California lawmakers left it up to local officials to determine the size of the monthly individual payments, which generally range from $500 to $1,000 in existing programs around the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vote came on the same day millions of parents began receiving their \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/lifestyle-joe-biden-business-health-government-and-politics-24023ed3ffba98e4a65dd6006518da7a\">first monthly payments\u003c/a> under a temporary expansion of the federal child tax credit, which many view as a form of guaranteed income.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now there is momentum, things are moving quickly,” said Michael Tubbs, an adviser to Gov. Gavin Newsom, who was a trailblazer when he instituted a guaranteed income program in 2019 as mayor of Stockton. “The next stop is the federal government.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For decades, most government assistance programs have had strict rules about how the money could be spent, usually limiting benefits to things like food or housing. But a guaranteed income program gives money to people with no rules on how to spend it. The idea is to reduce the stresses of poverty that cause health problems and make it harder for people to find and keep work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"guaranteed-income\"]“It changes the philosophy from ‘big brother government knows what’s best for you,’ ” said state Sen. Dave Cortese, a Democrat from San Jose. “We’ve been very prescriptive with that [foster care] population, as a state and as counties go. Look at the failure. Half of them don’t get their high school diplomas, let alone advance like other people their age.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some critics, like Republican Assemblyman Vince Fong of Bakersfield, say guaranteed income programs “undermine incentives to work and increase dependence on government.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We should be pushing policies that encourage the value of work,” said Fong, who abstained from Thursday’s vote. “Guaranteed income doesn’t provide the job training and skills needed for upward mobility.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guaranteed income programs date back to the 18th century. The U.S. government even experimented with them in the late 1960s and early 1970s during the Nixon administration before they fell out of favor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But recently, guaranteed income programs have been making a comeback. Programs have been announced in New Orleans; Oakland; Tacoma, Washington; Gainesville, Florida; and \u003ca href=\"https://abc7.com/guaranteed-income-los-angeles-county-pilot-program/10659842/#:~:text=The%20L.A.%20County%20Board%20of,for%20at%20least%20three%20years.\">Los Angeles\u003c/a> — the nation’s second largest city, which has a plan to give $1,000 a month to 2,000 needy families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state wants to target programs that benefit pregnant people and young adults who are aged out of the foster care system, to help them transition to life on their own. The latter includes people like Naihla De Jesus, who was removed from her mother’s custody at 17 and bounced between living with an aunt, a godmother and a boyfriend until landing in a transitional housing program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She became ineligible for that program when she turned 24 last year, which normally would have ended her government assistance. Instead, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/opa/newsroom/Pages/universalbasicincomeprogram.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Santa Clara County\u003c/a> taxpayers have been paying her $1,000 a month — up to a year — with no restrictions on how she can spend it, part of a local guaranteed income program targeting former foster care children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>De Jesus is also caring for her 9-year-old brother as his temporary guardian, while also battling anxiety and depression. She said her condition made it hard for her to keep a job because some days she didn’t have enough energy to get out of bed and go to work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, she has a full-time job as a client support specialist with the Bill Wilson Center, where she works with young people who are in situations like hers. She said she doesn’t worry about money like she used to, choosing to save most of what she gets from the guaranteed income program. She used some of it to buy things for her brother, whose interest in expensive electronics grows as he gets older.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And she also used some the money to save for a down payment for her “dream car,” a blue Subaru WRX.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m proud of myself, of where I am,” De Jesus said. “I don’t have to stress and then isolate myself and overthink, ‘Oh, I’m not going to have enough money to pay my rent or pay my phone bill.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County’s program has cost the county $1.4 million so far. Participants get the money on a debit card, which they can use for purchases or can withdraw from an ATM. County officials ask them to fill out surveys to monitor how they are doing, but administrators haven’t yet completed a thorough analysis, said Melanie Jimenez Perez, who oversees the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An analysis of a guaranteed program in Stockton found \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/stockton-health-coronavirus-pandemic-michael-tubbs-philanthropy-1227f2ab4a1bb7677a01b887ba91554f\">full-time employment increased\u003c/a> among participants after the first year of receiving the money.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Dozens of local programs have sprung up in recent years, including some that have been privately funded, making it easier for elected officials to sell the public on the idea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s plan is taxpayer-funded, and could spur other states to follow its lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you look at the stats for our foster youth, they are devastating,” Senate Republican Leader Scott Wilk of Santa Clarita said. “We should be doing all we can to lift these young people up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the provisions of the bill, local governments and organizations would apply for the money and run their own programs, with the state Department of Social Services deciding on who gets the funding. California lawmakers left it up to local officials to determine the size of the monthly individual payments, which generally range from $500 to $1,000 in existing programs around the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Gavin Newsom, who was a trailblazer when he instituted a guaranteed income program in 2019 as mayor of Stockton. “The next stop is the federal government.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For decades, most government assistance programs have had strict rules about how the money could be spent, usually limiting benefits to things like food or housing. But a guaranteed income program gives money to people with no rules on how to spend it. The idea is to reduce the stresses of poverty that cause health problems and make it harder for people to find and keep work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Dave Cortese, a Democrat from San Jose. “We’ve been very prescriptive with that [foster care] population, as a state and as counties go. Look at the failure. Half of them don’t get their high school diplomas, let alone advance like other people their age.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some critics, like Republican Assemblyman Vince Fong of Bakersfield, say guaranteed income programs “undermine incentives to work and increase dependence on government.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We should be pushing policies that encourage the value of work,” said Fong, who abstained from Thursday’s vote. “Guaranteed income doesn’t provide the job training and skills needed for upward mobility.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guaranteed income programs date back to the 18th century. The U.S. government even experimented with them in the late 1960s and early 1970s during the Nixon administration before they fell out of favor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But recently, guaranteed income programs have been making a comeback. Programs have been announced in New Orleans; Oakland; Tacoma, Washington; Gainesville, Florida; and \u003ca href=\"https://abc7.com/guaranteed-income-los-angeles-county-pilot-program/10659842/#:~:text=The%20L.A.%20County%20Board%20of,for%20at%20least%20three%20years.\">Los Angeles\u003c/a> — the nation’s second largest city, which has a plan to give $1,000 a month to 2,000 needy families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state wants to target programs that benefit pregnant people and young adults who are aged out of the foster care system, to help them transition to life on their own. The latter includes people like Naihla De Jesus, who was removed from her mother’s custody at 17 and bounced between living with an aunt, a godmother and a boyfriend until landing in a transitional housing program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She became ineligible for that program when she turned 24 last year, which normally would have ended her government assistance. Instead, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/opa/newsroom/Pages/universalbasicincomeprogram.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Santa Clara County\u003c/a> taxpayers have been paying her $1,000 a month — up to a year — with no restrictions on how she can spend it, part of a local guaranteed income program targeting former foster care children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>De Jesus is also caring for her 9-year-old brother as his temporary guardian, while also battling anxiety and depression. She said her condition made it hard for her to keep a job because some days she didn’t have enough energy to get out of bed and go to work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, she has a full-time job as a client support specialist with the Bill Wilson Center, where she works with young people who are in situations like hers. She said she doesn’t worry about money like she used to, choosing to save most of what she gets from the guaranteed income program. She used some of it to buy things for her brother, whose interest in expensive electronics grows as he gets older.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And she also used some the money to save for a down payment for her “dream car,” a blue Subaru WRX.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m proud of myself, of where I am,” De Jesus said. “I don’t have to stress and then isolate myself and overthink, ‘Oh, I’m not going to have enough money to pay my rent or pay my phone bill.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County’s program has cost the county $1.4 million so far. Participants get the money on a debit card, which they can use for purchases or can withdraw from an ATM. County officials ask them to fill out surveys to monitor how they are doing, but administrators haven’t yet completed a thorough analysis, said Melanie Jimenez Perez, who oversees the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An analysis of a guaranteed program in Stockton found \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/stockton-health-coronavirus-pandemic-michael-tubbs-philanthropy-1227f2ab4a1bb7677a01b887ba91554f\">full-time employment increased\u003c/a> among participants after the first year of receiving the money.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
