RENO, Nevada, January 17, 2019 -- This just in: Our United Resource PAC, an Independent Expenditure Only Political Action Committee, announced that it will, for the 2020 Election, and beyond, consider support for politicians and policies that promote rigorous reforms to the welfare system.
The reforms required for consideration of support, are as follows:
- More stringent recipient requirements
- Term limits to receive assistance
- More promotion of internal programs and practices that ease welfare recipients off welfare supports, rather than increasing dependence
- More due diligence in making sure illegal immigrants don't take advantage of public support, including those who have American born children due to birthright citizenship
- In cases where children are American and parents are illegal, should welfare supports be required, to ensure illegal immigrants don't take advantage of public supports, like the SNAP Program, it is proposed that we either place the child in the home of an American and approved family member (so they can continue to receive support), or place the child with a different, approved and court appointed guardian.
The programs requiring reform, are as follows:
- Temporary Assistance For Needy Families
- Medicaid
- SNAP
- Supplemental Security Income
- The Earned Income Tax Credit
- Housing Assistance
Our United Resource PAC has taken up welform reform as an issue because:
- Welfare in its current state does NOT support individuals, it actually hurts them.
- The changes sought reduce the current cycle of providing families with short term help, but keeps them in poverty long term.
- In cases of poverty due to bad or irresponsible behavior, Our United Resource PAC believes that we should stop rewarding said behavior at the cost of taxpayers. For individuals that are genuinely in poverty and require assistance, through no fault of their own (disability, etc.), use of government programs, like social security, as well as private charities, are encouraged.
- These reforms are in the best interest of the United States because they reduce costs to the American taxpayer.
For policies and politicians in alignment with the welfare reforms sought, Our United Resource PAC will run Independent Expenditures, demonstrating support. For policies and politicians NOT in alignment with the welfare reforms sought by Our United Resource PAC, the organization will run Independent Expenditures with purpose of targeted defeat.
