Aid Payment Critics Hit By Putney Des Moines IP
Iowa welfare chief Lawrence Putney rebutted critics accusing the state of underpaying ADC families. He noted June payments averaged $147.30 per family, above the national average of $126.50, with Iowa rising to $148.89 since June. The department faces a Nov. 1 payment reduction due to fund shortages affecting over 45,000 on the ADC rolls and about $18 million annually in federal state and county support.
