Summary of Bill HR 2108

Bill 119 HR 2108, also known as the Preventing Misuse of TANF Funds Act, aims to address and prevent intentional misuse of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds by subrecipients. TANF is a federal assistance program that provides financial assistance to low-income families with children.

The bill requires states to establish procedures to prevent and detect misuse of TANF funds by subrecipients, such as non-profit organizations or other entities that receive TANF funds to provide services to TANF recipients. These procedures must include regular audits and monitoring of subrecipients to ensure that funds are being used appropriately.

Additionally, the bill requires states to report any instances of misuse of TANF funds by subrecipients to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) within 30 days of discovery. HHS is then required to investigate the misuse and take appropriate action, which may include withholding funds from the subrecipient or imposing other penalties. Overall, the Preventing Misuse of TANF Funds Act aims to ensure that TANF funds are being used effectively and efficiently to support low-income families in need, and to hold subrecipients accountable for the proper use of these funds.
