Senate Finance Committee Backs Workfare Over Nixon Plan
The Senate Finance Committee voted 10 to 4 to drop Nixon’s family assistance proposal from welfare reform and replace it with a workfare plan. About 1.2 million able-bodied adults, mainly mothers with no preschool children, would be moved to a Federal Employment Corporation and required to work for benefits, with pay as low as 1.20 dollars per hour. The plan costs roughly 3 billion more than Nixon’s and would expand aid to about 29 million people while the Republican whip was absent in the defeat.
