Welfare Reform & the Devaluation of Women's Work

handle is hein.journals/depjsj12 and id is 87 raw text is: Kerregan: Welfare Reform & the Devaluation of Women's Work 1 DEPAUL JOURNAL FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE, VOL. 12, Iss. 2 [2019], ART. 2 WELFARE REFORM & THE DEVALUATION OF WOMEN'S WORK Anna Kerregan* Abstract: Women do not get a fair share when it comes to an economic assessment of their input. They are consistently overrepresented in impoverished communities and are much more likely than men to receive public assistance. This Article therefore posits a widely acknowledged anti-poverty strategy, Guaranteed Basic Income, to help support women's overall economic liberation. In addition to combating poverty, a Guaranteed Basic Income would provide women with the economic independence necessary to choose their method of contribution, whether it be care in the home, training or educational opportunities or the workforce; whereas, under the current welfare regime, particularly Temporary Assistance of Needy Families (TANF), only work within the labor market is deemed economically valuable.
