Attached is a budget memo from the County Welfare Directors
Association, the Service Employees International Union, the
California State Association of Counties, the Urban Counties of
California, and the Rural County Representatives of California.
This memo serves as our response to the CalWORKs-related
proposals in the May Revision. We continue to urge the
rightsizing of the CalWORKs Single Allocation. Specifically, we
request a one-time investment of $245 million in FY 2025-26 and a
long-overdue update to the administrative budget methodology
beginning in FY 2026-27.
