b

Answer to Question 2

The student should assert that in 1996, President Clinton signed into law the Welfare Reform Act. This new law put limits on benefits that welfare recipients are eligible to receive. Unemployed people ages 18 to 50 years who are not raising children are limited to three months of food stamps for any three-year period of joblessness. All welfare recipients are required after two years, to work, enroll in vocational training, or to perform community service. The number of people on welfare rolls decreased; this did not improve the plight of the poor. Many were not eligible under the new rules, yet they remained poor.
