Not due until early 2018, but the outline is apparent
TRUMP WHITE HOUSE GOES AFTER WHITE PEOPLE ON WELFARE
The Trump administration could hit the president’s white working-class base where it hurts—threatening to make welfare cuts.
The majority of people who receive welfare checks are white working-class Americans, many of whom voted for Trump
based on the pledge they would be better off financially under him. :lol
But the president said last month he would be looking “very strongly” at welfare reform after suggesting that some people were unfairly abusing the system.
“That’s becoming a very big subject and people are taking advantage of the system and other people aren’t receiving what they need to live, and we think
it’s very unfair to them,” Trump said in October (http://www.newsweek.com/under-trumps-new-budget-if-you-dont-work-you-dont-eat-republicans-are-kicking-679749).
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said on Monday that details of the administration’s plans to overhaul welfare would be released at the beginning of next year, stressing that Trump was particularly interested in the topic.
tax credits and government assistance benefitted 6.2 million white Americans without a degree in 2014,
compared with 2.8 million black Americans and
2.4 million Hispanic Americans without a degree.
any cuts to welfare benefits will hit the more than 6 million working-class white people the think tank says relies on such checks.
Exit polls show (https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/11/9/13574032/exit-polls-white-people-voted-trump-for-president) that working-class people voted for Trump in droves,
