Answer 1

Under the New Federalism policy, Nixon proposed giving more powers to the state government.

Nixon felt that the federal government was too large in size/scope thanks to programs like the New Deal (created by Franklin D Roosevelt) and the Great Society programs ( created by President Lyndon B Johnson). To combat this, he gave states the ability to choose how they would use the money given to them by the federal government.
