Ontario and Yates counties until 6:30 PM. Gusts near 60 mph possible along with hail and poor drainage flooding.FILE - Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis gives his State of the State address during a joint session of the Senate and House of Representatives in Tallahassee, Fla., Jan. 9, 2024.
The bill is sponsored by Rep. Adam Anderson, R-Tarpon Springs, and would address the "benefits cliff" that occurs when a household income slightly increases but results in the household losing its benefits. This can create a barrier to families and discourage financial self-sufficiency. The bill's analysis says the majority of program participants are children and adds that benefit cliffs "create a financial disincentive for low-income individuals to earn more income due to the destabilization and uncertainty that often results from a loss in benefits, especially when the benefit lost was essential to a parent's ability to reliably work."
Those participating in the program must provide proof that they are working or looking for work, taking part in a vocational training program, or going to school. Adult general education and high school equivalency exam preparation will now count towards these work requirements.
