and Notes |

|
|
|
This bill
increases the amount of income earned by recipients of benefits under the
Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program that is disregarded in
determining the amount of benefits they receive. The amount of the disregard
is lowered over time as recipients make the transition to stable employment.
Sufficient data is not currently available to determine what the additional
cost would be, but any cost would accrue to the Temporary Assistance for
Needy Families Federal Block Grant Fund and would have no impact on the
General Fund spending. |
