Tell Congress To Extend the TANF Emergency Fund

The ARRA TANF Emergency Fund provided states an unprecedented opportunity to implement or expand Transitional Jobs and subsidized employment programs to help hundreds of thousands of low-income people get jobs, earn income, and stimulate local economies in this battered economy. The Emergency Fund is set to expire on September 30, 2010. Without an extension by Congress, states will be forced to dismantle programs or cease planning efforts soon leaving low-income people without access to earned income.
