Report Looks at Payments Vs. Return to Work

A new report suggests generous welfare payments are keeping some people in Wisconsin from returning to work.

The Badger Institute this week released a report that looks at food stamp and temporary assistance spending in the state. The report says more people are getting more money from the government. Food stamp spending in Wisconsin up 167% from before the coronavirus, and food stamp enrollment is up nearly 30 percent.
