Bill overview
The Improving Access to Work Act aims to ensure that states effectively use Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds to support employment and self-sufficiency. Specifically, it requires states to dedicate at least 25% of their TANF grant money to programs like assistance, case management, and work supports. The bill also prevents states from using federal funds to replace their own general revenue spending on these core activities. This legislation is intended to strengthen state efforts to help families find and maintain employment.
