摘要：

Low-income women and the welfare system are under attack by liberals and conservatives, academicians and politicians. ''Welfare reform'' proposals include cutting benefits unless women pay rent, bear no children while receiving benefits, and ensure that their children attend school and receive vaccinations. Although these reforms are couched in the language of fiscal responsibility and control, the authors argue that the underlying purpose behind such policies is reform of women, not reform of welfare.
