7. Changes, Challenges, Choices--Welfare Reform Analysis Analysis of Federal Welfare Reform. On July 31, the US House approved the welfare reform conference bill, HR 3734, by a vote of 328 http://www.cppp.org/products/policyanalysis/ccc.html

Analysis of Federal Welfare Reform Following is an in-depth summary of each of the major components of the bill. Cash Assistance Provisions: New federal provisions that will apply in Texas: AFDC, JOBS and Emergency Assistance are combined in the new TANF block grant. States will receive fixed funding. AFDC entitlement ended. States must deny benefits to certain populations including, but not limited to: teen parents not in school; teen parents not living at home or in adult-supervised settings; those convicted of drug felonies after date of enactment. Texas waiver provisions that will likely take precedence over new federal bill: Time limits Personal responsibility statement Pilot projects Eligibility changes HR 3734 contains many provisions related to the current Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) program and the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills (JOBS) training program which have the potential to dramatically change how states operate their welfare and job training programs. However, the extent to which the bill will be enacted in every state is not clear because a provision in the bill will allow federally-approved state initiatives to take precedence over the new federal law. This provision allows states with welfare waivers (i.e. permission from the federal government to operate innovative state welfare and work-training programs for welfare recipients) granted prior to October 1, 1996, to continue operating under their waiver to the extent that the new federal provisions are inconsistent with the waiver.

The views expressed are those of the authors and should not be attributed to the Urban Institute, its trustees, or its funders. INTRODUCTION No one likes the current welfare system. Governors complain that federal law is overly prescriptive and are willing to take less federal money in return for more flexibility. The public believes that welfare is anti-work and anti-family although polls show that the public wants welfare reformed in ways that do not penalize children. Welfare recipients find dealing with the system degrading and demoralizing; most would prefer to work . Experts note that welfare has done little to stem the growth of poverty among children. In all but two states, welfare benefits (including food stamps) are insufficient to move a family above the poverty line In short, the current indictment against the welfare system has four particulars:

Oliphant is an entitlements policy analyst at the Cato Institute. Executive Summary Fours year ago, President Clinton signed into law the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act, promising to put an end to dependence on welfare by requiring work and responsibility and encouraging two-parent families. The conversion of the old entitlements-based Aid to Families with Dependent Children program into the new work-oriented Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program has brought about some of the most talked-about public policy phenomena of the last decade, including dramatically reduced caseloads and an influx of single mothers into the labor market. Welfare reform is generally regarded as a great success, and policymakers today are talking about incremental add-ons to the 1996 legislation. A closer review of the research, however, reveals that the celebration of welfare reform has been premature and that the new law, in fact, merits fundamental restructuring. A survey of welfare reform’s progress to date suggests that the 1996 legislation, although moderately successful in reducing the disincentive to leave welfare, has produced few gains in self-sufficiency and done little to discourage women from making the choices that cause them to enter the welfare rolls in the first place:

12. Faith-Based Social Welfare: A Constitutional Crises, Analysis Of Underlying Legi Presents an in depth analysis of the implications and probable impact of faith based welfare reform and its root charitable choice legeslation, against the reform movement and its antecedent charitable choice clause. http://constitution-first.org

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America - and to the Constitution for which it stands, - one Nation indivisible, with Equality, Liberty, and Justice for all. Background Information Faith-Based Welfare Reform: A Constitutional Crises Website Established March 2002 (Updated 7 June 2004) Welfare reform has been one of the centerpieces of President Bush’s domestic agenda since the onset of his administration. This was evident in the creation of key legislation and supporting executive orders designed to place government money into the hands of “faith-based” charity organizations. This legislation, if enacted, would liberally empower religious charities with the authority to administer government funded welfare programs. Prior to the September eleventh terrorist attacks, this legislation had successfully passed the House of Representatives by a relatively narrow margin and was consequently forwarded to the Senate for consideration ( source Priorities in Washington shifted dramatically after September eleven and the legislation was consequently sidelined for the time being, but eventually it will come under review again. The probable long run impacts of this "faith-based" legislation make it some of the most provocative law making that has ever been proposed.
