Welfare bill faces criticism from Ways and Means group
Four members of the House Ways and Means Committee say the benefit level in the new welfare bill is too low and the work requirements for mothers of young children are too stringent. A fifth member opposes the welfare section outright. They back the measure as an improvement but urge higher payments and caution against forcing all mothers with preschoolers to work. Rep. Ullman dissented, proposing a substitute emphasizing day care, expanded training, and placement programs to reduce welfare.
