By including welfare reforms in his proposed 2020 budget, President Trump is sending a strong signal to Congress, federal agencies, state leaders and Americans alike that America only works when its people work. A record-high 28 million able-bodied adults are on Medicaid today, and most are not working at all. Likewise, the number of able-bodied adults on food stamps remains near record highs, with just eight percent of those able-bodied adults working full-time jobs. After Florida reinstated food stamp work requirements, individuals found work in over 1,000 different industries, and able-bodied adult enrollment decreased by an astonishing 94 percent. In Arkansas, work requirements helped able-bodied adults more than triple their incomes two years after leaving food stamps.
