GOP bill would rename welfare the ‘JOBS Program’

The federal cash welfare program would be renamed the “JOBS Program” under legislation set to be moved this week by House Republicans.

Today, cash welfare is known as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, or TANF. But Republicans on the House Ways and Means Committee aim to advance a reauthorization this week that would change the name to “Jobs and Opportunity with Benefits and Services.”

“This is a great opportunity to do more to help those who are on the sidelines get to the front lines of employment,” said committee Chairman Kevin Brady, R-Texas.

Hopefully, outcome will consistently follow the name change.

Remember that Hillary would instead be shoveling more money into the program, expecting no significant changes in employment status of the recipients, while all the time spending millions on advertising for even more recipients.

The HildaBeast's plan would essentially buy votes with continued slavery to her federal government!
