q1 · i? · review · r?
The brief's overview reports that the cost-containment model "has raised concerns about funding equity," identifying equity as the model's central disadvantage; this is the brief's framing of the policy debate, not a measured finding.
"Census funding is viewed as a cost-containment approach, but it has raised concerns about funding equity."
