There was a report last night on "Special Edition" on how Obama (through HHS) is planning to, again, circumvent Congress and waive the "work requirement" of the Welfare Reform Bill that was passed and signed during Clinton's adm. Under the "work or prepare to work" heart of that bill, welfare dropped in half and child poverty dramatically dropped.
Now Obama wants money paid out with no requirement to seek work.
Call your congressman and senators.
I believe it was an executive order so he bypassed Congress on this one.
