United States Code Congressional andAdministrative News, 1996-10, No. 8,pp. 110 STAT. 2105-2355 (INFORM P60904)Aims to convert the welfare system into a work programme. Requires one member of every family on welfare to be working within 2 years of receiving welfare benefits; lifetime benefits shall be limited to 5 years (with exceptions for cases of special hardship). To assist persons in leaving welfare, provides additional funding for child care facilities. States are allowed to cap benefits for families which have children they cannot support. Teenagers who give birth outside of wedlock are required to live with an adult and remain in school in order to continue receiving welfare benefits. At the same time, procedures to enforce child support from absent noncustodial parents are strengthened. Also allows States to sanction welfare recipients who test positive for illegal drug use. Finally, provisions make families which sponsor immigration of relatives legally responsible for their well-being. Aliens are excluded from receiving food stamps, Supplemental Security Income and other benefits until they have received U.S. citizenship or have paid Social Security taxes for 40 quarters.
