Brownback said the current welfare system was an area where government could be reduced.
BROWNBACK: wants less red tape
Adopting an idea from Sen. Nancy Kassebaum, Brownback said states should be given the responsibility of overseeing the welfare system.
Continued from Page 1A.
He said the federal government should exchange control of the welfare system with the states. In return, the federal government would take the responsibility to oversee and pay for Medicaid. He said that in the current system, the state paid for mandates for health care instead of the federal government picking up the bill.
"The federal government has tried six times to fix the welfare system," Brownback said. "And every time they have failed."
Brownback said establishing term limits would be another improvement that could be made in the political arena. He said multiple benefits would be gained by imposing term limits on Congress.
"We need new ideas and new blood in those positions," Brownback said.
He also said that incumbent candidates had distinct advantages over their competition in most elections. Term limits would make elections more competitive.
Brownback is a fourth generation Kansan from just outside Parker, which is south of Topeka. He said he grew up on the family farm but now lives in Topeka with his wife, Mary, and three children — two girls and a boy.
He attended Kansas State University and received a bachelor's degree in agricultural economics in 1979. He
