People getting federal family aid would need work plans, and states would face new spending rules.
This bill would extend the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program through 2030. It would require people receiving aid to create personal work plans and engage in work activities, with penalties for non-compliance. States would no longer be able to use these funds for families earning more than twice the poverty line or for direct child care services.
Today, states receive federal grants for family assistance with certain work participation rules and administrative limits. After this bill, these grants would be reauthorized through 2030, but with stricter requirements. People receiving aid would need individual work plans, and states would face new performance goals for employment outcomes. States would also be prohibited from using funds for families earning more than twice the poverty line and for direct child care services, while their administrative spending limit would drop from 15% to 10%.
