"The lines set by policymakers risk embedding regional and racial biases
about who counts as “left behind.”"
The whole thing is ridiculous and does nothing to address the causes of

politicians have invented a thousand and one ways to say "People whose
grandfathers were designated poor shall be designated poor."
