Quizplus · Accepted Answer

General revenue sharing provided federal funds to state and local governments to be used as they saw fit, without specific directives from Congress. As a result, it was difficult for representatives to claim credit for specific projects implemented with federal money. This lack of credit claimed by representatives made it unpopular with most members of Congress.
