Ohio seeks waiver of welfare penalties over low work rate
Ohio asks federal regulators to reduce or waive 136 million dollars in penalties for failing to reach the 42 percent work participation rate in TANF. The rate stands at 23 percent, the lowest since 1997, with Michigan and Maine also behind. Officials blame recession and limited opportunities for the drop. Benjamin Johnson of the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services notes the economy has limited options for those facing barriers to employment.
