Welfare rolls fall then rise amid court rulings and savings
February and March have been high welfare months due to policy shifts and a court decision ending a four month waiting period. A Supreme Court rule due next month could reduce aid for recipients with outside income. County welfare rolls declined from 034,561 to 880,823 in February, affecting the 1872-73 budget which is expected to drop by at least $15 million in welfare spending.
