Bill overview
This bill, the Restoring Temporary to TANF Act, aims to strengthen the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program by requiring states to dedicate a significant portion of their block grant funding to support recipients’ job search and training efforts. Specifically, it mandates that states spend at least 25% of their TANF grants on activities like work supports, education, apprenticeships, and case management to help individuals create individual responsibility plans. The changes will go into effect on October 1, 2026. This legislation seeks to improve the effectiveness of TANF in helping families become self-sufficient.
