In 1996, President Bill Clinton signed the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA), which ended the Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) program.

PRWORA replaced AFDC with Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), which placed a stronger emphasis on work requirements and time limits for welfare recipients.
