The Senate Health and Welfare Committee approved a bill to raise Aid to Families With Dependent Children by 30.6 percent at a cost of 302.6 million dollars.
Democratic candidate Jess Unruh endorsed Nixon welfare reform and attacked Gov Ronald Reagan for a Dixie view against it. He credited Finch and Veneman for pushing the plan and said it incentivizes welfare recipients to work, while Reagan argued the bill risks costs and expands open welfare programs. Veneman disputed Reagan's claims and noted no significant changes from the initial proposal.
Lawmakers and Reagan aides clash over a proposed family support program. The Nixon era cost estimates hover around 4.4 billion dollars annually, while Reagan warns the price could reach 15 billion. The plan guarantees each parent 500 dollars per year and each child 300 dollars, with work requirements for able bodied men.
