Bill overview
This bill aims to reduce fraud and improper payments within the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, which is primarily funded through block grants to states. It does this by applying the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019 to state TANF programs and requiring the Secretary of Health and Human Services to develop a 10-year plan to minimize these errors. The bill seeks to improve the overall integrity and effectiveness of the TANF program by identifying and addressing wasteful spending and ineligible benefits.
