Welfare and Social Security reforms win House approval
The House approved a broad welfare and Social Security package, creating a federally administered plan with a $2,400 annual income floor for a family of four and a five percent benefit boost. It also raises payroll taxes, expands Medicare, and replaces state welfare with a federal family assistance program, sending the measure to the Senate for late-year action.
