The Act ended most welfare and angered many of Clinton's more [[liberal]] constituents.  The Act changed the welfare system into one requiring work in exchange for time-limited assistance.  The Act contained a performance bonus to reward states for moving welfare recipients into jobs, state maintenance of effort requirements, and support for families moving from welfare to work.
