welfare bill

The House plans to vote today on two welfare bills.

It's the only way to get the welfare bills down.

In very broad terms, the Government came into office saying that they would cut welfare bills.

He says the move would boost productivity and cut welfare bills.

Growth, he said, was the current "missing ingredient", with the Government spending more on welfare bills.

He should be a rich person who's not above helping the poor on his own initiative, rather than passing welfare bills.

Instead, there will be less money to fund the work, fewer jobs, higher welfare bills and a fall in tax revenues over the long term.

He said the government was also going to tackle welfare bills in the mini-budget.

That potentially more costly approach is not the thrust of the welfare bills now in Congress.

The new Republican majorities in both houses passed separate welfare bills last year.

All parties are looking to cut welfare bills and reduce the long-term jobless.

Federal transportation and welfare bills that could bring fiscal relief are up for consideration next year.

Tax revenues will be much lower and welfare bills much higher than they are banking on.

It gives families security, reduces welfare bills, and combats poverty in old age.

To help pay for these tax cuts, the welfare bills would discard the current pledge to aid every entitled poor person.

Mr. Clinton has vetoed two welfare bills, but an election draws near.

Not only in terms of a financial cost - higher taxes, inflated welfare bills and lower productivity, as people sit on benefits long-term.

And this increased debt would be spent not in supporting jobs and families now but on long-term welfare bills.

Mr Osborne said this was due to the government's decision "to cut welfare bills rather than public services".

Supporters of the new Federal welfare bills disagree.

Osborne, in a major innovation, is planning to put a cap on some working-age welfare bills.

Republican welfare bills would do just that.

Rules will be changed to allow payment by results with anticipated savings from welfare bills available up front to get people jobs in the first place.

Aides said that government departments already faced a 7 per cent cut in spending because of rising inflation and welfare bills.

Ministers have been warned that the plan to cap housing benefit risks driving up overall welfare bills.
