What’s in it

This bill provides that in determining a family’s income and resources for purposes of the family’s initial and continuing eligibility for assistance and for determining grant amounts under the family investment program, in order to encourage marriage among single-parent households and assist those households when the child’s parent living in the household marries, the income of an individual whose needs were not previously included in the household and who marries the child’s parent living in the household shall be disregarded for a period of consecutive months beginning the month following the date of the marriage certificate.
