As an American citizen, individuals are entitled to various means of assistance from not only the federal government, but from state legislature as well. However, as part of a recently formed Congressional Committee, I am faced with the decision of choosing to eliminate one of three vital welfare programs due to their being no option for reconstruction of any one of these programs. Options at hand for removal include Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Although all of these are vital, however I am recommending the elimination of the TANF due to circumstances that cause it to be essentially less crucial than the other two programs. Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) is a program that supplies grant funds to states to provide families with financial assistance and other related services such as job preparation and work assistance.…

I believe that any unemployed, able-bodied person, no matter their skill level, should actively look for work and at least attempt to become self-sufficient. There are always extenuating circumstances, but being employed raises your self-esteem and makes you feel like a contributing member of society. I have experienced hardship and I was a single-mother for over 8 years. I was a welfare recipient before the enactment of welfare reform and was determined to use the resources given to me to become a productive member of society. There are even more options available to those on welfare after 1996.…
