As ordered reported by the House Committee on Education and the Workforce on September 13, 2012      H.J. Res. 118, a joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Office of Family Assistance of the Administration for Children and Families of the Department of Healthcost estimate
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Ways and Means on September 13, 2012 H.J. Res. 118 would disapprove the rule submitted by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) on July 12, 2012, that modifies the waiver authority with respect to work requirements in the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program (TANF). H.J. Res. 118 would invoke a legislative process established by the Congressional Review Act (Public Law 104-121) to disapprove the new waiver authority rule. If H.J. Res. 118 is enacted, the rule would have no force or effect. Presentation at Wellesley Collegeblog post
I was honored to present the Marshall Goldman Lecture at Wellesley College last week. Marshall Goldman has been one of the leading experts on the Russian economy for many years and is a distinguished emeritus member of Wellesley's faculty. I met Marshall more than 20 years ago, and I enjoyed seeing him again and talking with other professors at Wellesley (who include both a former student and a co-author of mine) and with Wellesley students. I spoke about the budgetary challenges facing the United States; you can see the slides from my presentation. Choices for Federal Spending and Taxespresentation
