Proposal Debated To Give Minimum Income to Everyone
NEW YORK United States welfare advocates march on city halls across several cities calling for a guaranteed minimum income for all. The demonstrations mix poverty rights groups, ministers and welfare recipients, aiming to pressure Congress as a nationwide debate over a universal income grows. With tens of thousands across major cities, the protests highlight welfare recipients thirsting for higher benefits and less intrusive welfare administration. A Washington panel for the Department of Health, Education and Welfare notes many on public aid cannot realistically become self sufficient and urges targeted training and coherent standards across states.
