Work requirements hurt poor people AND are a waste of money.
Arkansas spent $26 million on administrative costs for work requirements — and saw no increase in employment.
Georgia’s program cost $40 million in one year — 80% of that went to administrative and consulting costs.

Republicans are cruel, venal, morons.
86 the GOP
Now you’re getting it. Wink wink nudge nudge.
PS I understand disability- that’s my job.
"able bodied"?" Bc I've been told that if I can walk at all, even
That not something they do.
They are just going to cut.
Georgia's cost far more than GOP "claimed" it would save
It was obvious; GOP sought illegal, costly, & discriminatory means to deny people needed programs in both states https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=484430eee54733cc266fd1927d99ce7b0cd659d01183a727b57da8101f1d968eJmltdHM9MTc0ODEzMTIwMA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=4&fclid=088da541-c07d-6c0c-3878-b085c1506d51&psq=Both+Geotgia+and+Arkansas+dorpped+their+workrequirements+for+its+failed+policy&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9hcmthbnNhc2Fkdm9jYXRlLmNvbS8yMDI1LzAyLzE0L3RoZS1maXJzdC10aW1lLWRpZG50LXdvcmstZ2VvcmdpYS1hbmQtYXJrYW5zYXMtc2NhbGUtYmFjay1tZWRpY2FpZC13b3JrLXJlcXVpcmVtZW50cy8&ntb=1
That’s the problem.
But it sounds good! Hate of Government workers! The Retirements and Pensions piss them off!
So they love to hate and blame.
EIGHTY SEVEN!
None of us can afford NOT to work.
I'm one of the 64 yr olds. The other is DISABLED, and still drags herself to work on her walker FORTY HOURS A WEEK.
The 87 yr old just cut back to 4 days wk.
1. Get cool outfits for each photo opt Uniform expense
2. Have conferencing for all lavish meals
3. Go back and ask for more funds
4. Hire consultants. Uncle or aunt
5. Ask Congress for a new jet.
6. Go back and renegotiate the contract more funds to study impact if poor.
Give a man/women the tools-then they can work!

Conservative used to mean something besides “do the opposite of a liberal.”
UBI would generate more wealth than trying to turn the majority of the population into Elysium Serfs.

Disastrous Unilateral Market Policies
you do know this is all public infor and we can look. right?
At least, that's what the GQP thinks...
No increase in employment while tax-payers money was WASTED!
Those creating these programms should be held personally accountable, repay the WASTED money to the tax-payers!
What's being done to regain that WASTED money Congresswoman?
I guess DOGEies missed that part.
Not federally considered a legal job, they take all my taxes, and I get 0 benefits.
@jayapal.house.gov please put protections on workers in WA.

Okay, sport. D'ya KNOW what BREAKAGE is?
Government should be taking taxes from us to make life easier for US.
Not to barely keep the lights on while the Wealthy feed.
The working poor are child …
The working poor WORK hard at physically demanding jobs and often work more than one job.
The point is to not spend money helping people. They just can't say that or people won't vote for them.
Majority are "working poor with families" . No individual gets Medicaid.
The elderly and disabled shouldn't have to do work requirements.
Work requirements are more talking points from the Right to confirm the bias of their Kool-Aid drinkers.
It’s an institutionalised Reverse Robin Hood.
F them.
Every interview, every time it's addressed, they're ignorance should be on full display.
#ThemFirst
voting as law enforcement gets us chuck schumer
It's classic fascism, social darwinism, eugenics, etc.
The people who merely support these things might delude themselves about their unexamined moral feelings, but they're no less culpable for the suffering.
TY Fox News.
ALL for nothing.
Because the Republicans ARE NOT LISTENING!
They don't care what anyone has to say.
They kneel to Trump and Project 2025
Give people some dignity and respect and the ones who feel they can world will work.
And why be pissy about it anyway?
If you’re well employed count yourself lucky.
A lot of folks never had that opportunity.
(To earn the billionaires more money)
We're entering uncharted territory.
With financial punishments for acts of obvious performative shenanigans like using altered photos for political ha-ha points.
Companies don’t pay a living wage despite huge profits. Workers need gov’t assistance to survive.
Solution: take tax money from the working people who actually pay a notable % of their income on taxes and give it to the poor.
Work requirements that provided no childcare wile the single parent worked
Mike Johnson is using figures from DOGE
Numbers that cannot be verified
Child labor will be the next step
Jake Tapper lies
Maybe they should just do what he was doing?
