SEC. 4. FINDINGS. 
The Congress makes the following findings: 
(1) The Temporary Assistance for Needy Fami-
lies (TANF) Program established by the Personal 
Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation 
Act of 1996 (Public Law 104–193) has succeeded in 
moving families from welfare to work and reducing 
child poverty. 
(A) There has been a dramatic increase in 
the employment of current and former welfare 
recipients. The percentage of working recipients 
reached an all-time high in fiscal year 1999 and 
continued steady in fiscal years 2000 and 2001. 
In fiscal year 2001, 33 percent of adult recipi-
ents were working, compared to less than 7 per-
cent in fiscal year 1992, and 11 percent in fis-
cal year 1996. All States met the overall par-
ticipation rate standard in fiscal year 2001, as 
did the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.
(B) Earnings for welfare recipients re-
maining on the rolls have also increased signifi-
cantly,
as
have
earnings
for
female-headed 
households. The increases have been particu-
larly large for the bottom 2 income quintiles, 
that is, those women who are most likely to be 
former or present welfare recipients. 
(C) Welfare dependency has plummeted. 
As
of
June
2002,
2,025,000
families
and 
5,008,000 individuals were receiving assistance. 
Accordingly, the number of families in the wel-
fare caseload and the number of individuals re-
ceiving cash assistance declined 54 percent and 
58 percent, respectively, since the enactment of 
TANF. These declines have persisted even as 
unemployment rates have increased: unemploy-
ment rates nationwide rose 50 percent, from 
3.9 percent in September 2000 to 6 percent in 
November 2002, while welfare caseloads contin-
ued to decline. 
(D) The child poverty rate continued to de-
cline between 1996 and 2001, falling 20 percent 
from 20.5 to 16.3 percent. The 2001 child pov-
erty rate remains at the lowest level since 1979. 
Child poverty rates for African-American and 
Hispanic children have also fallen dramatically 
during the past 6 years. African-American child
poverty is at the lowest rate on record and His-
panic child poverty is at the lowest level re-
ported in over 20 years. 
(E) Despite these gains, States have had 
mixed success in fully engaging welfare recipi-
ents in work activities. While all States have 
met the overall work participation rates re-
quired by law, in 2001, in an average month, 
only just over 1⁄3 of all families with an adult 
participated in work activities that were count-
able toward the State’s participation rate. Five 
jurisdictions failed to meet the more rigorous 2-
parent work requirements, and 19 jurisdictions 
(States and territories) are not subject to the 2-
parent requirements, most because they moved 
their 2-parent cases to separate State programs 
where they are not subject to a penalty for fail-
ing the 2-parent rates. 
(2) As a Nation, we have made substantial 
progress in reducing teen pregnancies and births, 
slowing increases in nonmarital childbearing, and 
improving child support collections and paternity es-
tablishment. 
(A) The teen birth rate has fallen continu-
ously since 1991, down a dramatic 22 percent
by 2000. During the period of 1991–2000, 
teenage birth rates fell in all States and the 
District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Vir-
gin Islands. Declines also have spanned age, ra-
cial, and ethnic groups. There has been success 
in lowering the birth rate for both younger and 
older teens. The birth rate for those 15–17 
years of age is down 29 percent since 1991, and 
the rate for those 18 and 19 is down 16 per-
cent. Between 1991 and 2000, teen birth rates 
declined for all women ages 15–19—white, Afri-
can American, American Indian, Asian or Pa-
cific Islander, and Hispanic women ages 15–19. 
The rate for African American teens—until re-
cently the highest—experienced the largest de-
cline, down 31 percent from 1991 to 2000, to 
reach the lowest rate ever reported for this 
group. Most births to teens are nonmarital; in 
2000, about 73 percent of the births to teens 
aged 15–19 occurred outside of marriage. 
(B) Nonmarital childbearing continued to 
increase slightly in 2001, however not at the 
sharp rates of increase seen in recent decades. 
The birth rate among unmarried women in 
2001 was 4 percent lower than its peak reached
in 1994, while the proportion of births occur-
ring outside of marriage has remained at ap-
proximately 33 percent since 1998. 
(C) The negative consequences of out-of-
wedlock birth on the mother, the child, the fam-
ily, and society are well documented. These in-
clude increased likelihood of welfare depend-
ency, increased risks of low birth weight, poor 
cognitive development, child abuse and neglect, 
and teen parenthood, and decreased likelihood 
of having an intact marriage during adulthood. 
(D) An estimated 24,500,000 children do 
not
live
with
their
biological
fathers,
and 
7,100,000 children do not live with their bio-
logical mothers. These facts are attributable 
largely to declining marriage rates, increasing 
divorce rates, and increasing rates of nonmar-
ital births during the latter part of the 20th 
century. 
(E) There has been a dramatic rise in co-
habitation as marriages have declined. Only 40 
percent of children of cohabiting couples will 
see their parents marry. Those who do marry
experience a 50 percent higher divorce rate. 
Children in single-parent households and cohab-
iting households are at much higher risk of 
child abuse than children in intact married and 
stepparent families. 
(F) Children who live apart from their bio-
logical fathers, on average, are more likely to be 
poor, experience educational, health, emotional, 
and psychological problems, be victims of child 
abuse, engage in criminal behavior, and become 
involved with the juvenile justice system than 
their peers who live with their married, biologi-
cal mother and father. A child living in a single-
parent family is nearly 5 times as likely to be 
poor as a child living in a married-couple fam-
ily. In 2001, in married-couple families, the 
child poverty rate was 8 percent, and in house-
holds headed by a single mother, the poverty 
rate was 39.3 percent. 
(G) Since the enactment of the Personal 
Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconcili-
ation Act of 1996, child support collections 
within the child support enforcement system 
have
grown
every
year,
increasing
from 
$12,000,000,000 in fiscal year 1996 to nearly 
$19,000,000,000 in fiscal year 2001. The num-
ber of paternities established or acknowledged
in fiscal year 2002 reached an historic high of 
over 1,500,000—which includes more than a 
100 percent increase through in-hospital ac-
knowledgement programs to 790,595 in 2001 
from 324,652 in 1996. Child support collections 
were made in well over 7,000,000 cases in fiscal 
year 2000, significantly more than the almost 
4,000,000 cases having a collection in 1996. 
(3) The Personal Responsibility and Work Op-
portunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 gave States 
great flexibility in the use of Federal funds to de-
velop innovative programs to help families leave wel-
fare and begin employment and to encourage the 
formation of 2-parent families. 
(A) Total Federal and State TANF ex-
penditures
in
fiscal
year
2001
were 
$25,500,000,000, up from $24,000,000,000 in 
fiscal year 2000 and $22,600,000,000 in fiscal 
year 1999. This increased spending is attrib-
utable to significant new investments in sup-
portive services in the TANF program, such as 
child care and activities to support work. 
(B) Since the welfare reform effort began 
there has been a dramatic increase in work par-
ticipation (including employment, community
service, and work experience) among welfare re-
cipients, as well as an unprecedented reduction 
in the caseload because recipients have left wel-
fare for work. 
(C) States are making policy choices and 
investment decisions best suited to the needs of 
their citizens. 
(i) To expand aid to working families, 
all States disregard a portion of a family’s 
earned income when determining benefit 
levels. 
(ii) Most States increased the limits 
on countable assets above the former Aid 
to
Families
with
Dependent
Children 
(AFDC) program. Every State has in-
creased the vehicle asset level above the 
prior AFDC limit for a family’s primary 
automobile. 
(iii) States are experimenting with 
programs to promote marriage and father 
involvement. Over half the States have 
eliminated restrictions on 2-parent fami-
lies. Many States use TANF, child sup-
port, or State funds to support community-
based activities to help fathers become
more involved in their children’s lives or 
strengthen relationships between mothers 
and fathers. 
(4) Therefore, it is the sense of the Congress 
that increasing success in moving families from wel-
fare to work, as well as in promoting healthy mar-
riage and other means of improving child well-being, 
are very important Government interests and the 
policy contained in part A of title IV of the Social 
Security Act (as amended by this Act) is intended 
to serve these ends.
