Welfare Reform Passes House In General Social Security Push
The House approved a vast package linking welfare reform with Social Security changes. It would replace the fragmented welfare system with a federal plan guaranteeing a $2,400 minimum family income, extend Medicare to disabled retirees, and raise payroll taxes to fund benefits while allowing states to supplement federal payments. The bill moves to the Senate for a likely late-year vote.
