In June 2016 a bipartisan bill passed the House of Representatives to allocate $300 million for state and local SIBs over ten years (Wallace, 2015). Entering into a rigorous, time-intensive pay for success contract is likely a better plan if a program is not brand new. In reality, they may be a new brand for existing funding.
