Welfare Jobs Plan Aims 225000 Adults In Public Work
The Nixon administration revamps welfare reform with an $800 million plan to place 225,000 recipients in city and state public jobs in parks hospitals and garbage collection. Veneman told the Ways and Means Committee the program would lift federal costs from 4 to about 4.5 billion, with net cost about 495 million as participants leave welfare rolls. A $2200 annual federal allotment for a four person family is proposed while excluding food stamps.
