Jobs and Opportunity with Benefits and Services (JOBS) for Success Act of 2025

This bill renews the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, which provides help to low-income families, through 2030 and makes several changes to how the program works. Instead of requiring states to have a certain number of people doing work activities, it measures success based on whether former participants actually get jobs and earn money. States would be required to create individual plans for each person receiving help and check in with them at least every 90 days, and they could not give benefits to families earning more than twice the poverty line. The bill also requires states to spend at least 25% of their TANF money on things like job training, education, and apprenticeships, while limiting what they can spend on administrative costs to 10%.
