Congress has already started down the reform path this week with the introduction of the new welfare proposal in the House.

The welfare proposal would reward states that got people off the public assistance rolls and into jobs.

The Governor plans to unveil details of his welfare proposals today.

There is, in fact, considerable - and bipartisan - concern among the states over the administration's welfare proposals.

But for some, the welfare proposal has become a watershed.

The details of the administration's welfare proposal are expected to be announced within the next month.

He criticized Congressional welfare proposals, saying they would encourage dependence.

But the plan is significant because it puts forth a welfare proposal far more radical than most now being discussed.

The welfare proposal involves a 1988 law that was supposed to go into effect this October.

One way out of this problem is to borrow an idea from President Clinton's 1994 welfare proposal.
