Last week, Governor Inslee signed ESHB 1652 and SHB 2007 into law, reinstating the TANF child support pass-through and reinstating TANF hardship time limit exemptions for families with children under 2. Read more on our blog: povertyaction.org/governor-insle…

.@Diana_CBPP said it best: To honor #WomensHistoryMonth, we need to strengthen care infrastructure and invest in the care workforce. brnw.ch/21wHSVx
▶️ WATCH @PeggyBaileyDC: "As a nation, we have spent too long blaming and punishing people for being poor, for not having a home, for being evicted, and for struggling to pay their bills."
@PeggyBaileyDC That wraps up @PeggyBaileyDC’s testimony before @SenateBanking, read the full written testimony: cbpp.org/research/housi…
The Child Support Pass-Through is on it's way to the Governor's desk! Read more: crosscut.com/briefs/2024/03…
In some states, #TANF funds are allocated toward anti-abortion crisis pregnancy centers. States should invest TANF dollars toward supporting needy families with cash assistance - not toward deceptive organizations that counter reproductive justice. pbs.org/newshour/show/…
CPCs are antithetical to the goals of #TANF & dangerous for pregnant people. The Administration’s proposed regulation is a step in the right direction. #TANF dollars should be invested in families by directing more #TANF dollars toward #CashBenefits. pbs.org/newshour/show/…
ESHB 1652 has passed out of Ways and Means, which means it's time to pressure the Senate to vote YES to reinstate the TANF Child Support Pass-Through! Contact your Senator at tinyurl.com/Pass1652
LISTEN: In this episode, we speak with Crosscut’s Brandon Block about his reporting on Washington’s interception of child support for those who also receive TANF payments, or welfare, and how it affects families. crosscut.com/podcast/crossc…

WA state is taking steps to end their TANF child support penalty. @JohnCavanaughNE LB233 could do the same for NE! ❌ In 2022, NE withheld $4.3 M+ in child support funds for kids in poverty ✅ #NEleg should advance LB233. When child support laws support children, everyone wins

New from @crosscut: States do not need to continue the punitive practice of keeping current & former #TANF families' child support payments! #HB1652 in WA would direct all monthly child support payments to #TANF families @povertyactionwa app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?Bi…… Story🔗👇
crosscut.com/investigations… For decades, Washington state has forced parents to repay welfare benefits by seizing their child support payments. Some legislators are seeking to wind down the practice, which intercepted more than $40 million meant for impoverished children in 2022.
On #EITCAwarenessDay I’m excited to be attending a panel at @BPC_Bipartisan about the bipartisan #EITC. The IRS estimates that only 4 out of 5 eligible filers claim the credit — promoting awareness and outreach of the EITC is critical.
While anti-abortion state lawmakers funnel record-high funding to "crisis pregnancy centers" across the country, Pennsylvania just re-allocated that money to legitimate, evidence-based help for pregnant & parenting Pennsylvanians Thank you @GovernorShapiro!
Goodbye, Real Alternatives. Quality healthcare is here to stay! We are proud to uplift the new Women's Service Program, announced yesterday by @GovernorShapiro. Funding that went to Real Alternatives will now go to quality women's healthcare. That's what we call a #WHCWin! 🎉
Last night, the House passed H.R. 6918, the Supporting Pregnant and Parenting Women & Families Act. The bill restricts HHS from implementing components of its proposed TANF rulemaking that direct TANF funds to their intended purposes, rather than to crisis pregnancy centers.
H.R. 6918, proposes to block a portion of a proposed rule from the Administration meant to protect #TANF resources & have states direct funds to families instead of continuing the practice of directing funds to anti-abortion centers, aka crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs).
"Crisis pregnancy centers" are an anti-abortion talking point they use to claim they're not just forced birthers who don't care about babies In reality, they're are fighting to take more money away from babies in poverty 👇
