Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act [1]
Are we talking about the welfare reform that put 5 year absolute limits on public assistance? Does that sound progressive to you?
It also has many ongoing consequences. Poor, working class mothers have to choose between accepting assistance or living with their child's father. If neither made enough to live on the father was forced to leave the household. I don't see anything progressive in destroying poor families.
