19 Opportunities for State Legislatures Short-Term (1) Convert TANF/SNAP Benefits into Wage-Paying Jobs Enact state legislation enabling recipients of TANF and SNAP benefits to voluntarily convert their monthly cash grants into wages earned for performing useful wage-paying work in Transitional Jobs. Benefits: -- Higher income (since EITC can be claimed); -- Potentially faster movement from welfare to unsubsidized employment thus lowering state costs because: - Real work experience often improves self-confidence and results in positive employer references, and - Transitional Job employer may actually hire; -- Private sector creation of new jobs May require federal waivers or law changes 19
20 Opportunities for State Legislatures Short-Term (2) Establish State Pilots of Entire Policy Package Enact state laws, and obtain federal waivers or law changes (if needed) Select valid control and experimental groups in urban neighborhoods and rural counties Offer experimental group the entire policy package Compare results for control vs. experimental groups, looking at both: - Economic outcomes: employment, earnings, income, poverty; - Other outcomes: CJ activity, health, education, marriage Long-Term Enact state legislation that translates each component of policy package into law. 20
