	U.S. Senate Committee on Finance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The U.S. Senate Committee on Finance (or, less formally, Senate Finance Committee) is a standing committee of the United States Senate.
		It is one of the oldest committees in the Senate, dating back to the beginning of the Senate, and having been chaired by such notable senators as Henry Clay.

	Senate Finance Committee Report on Social Security Act -1935
		This is the Report of the Senate Finance Committee as its version of the legislation was passed in the Committee and sent to the full Senate.
		The published hearings of the Finance Committee of the Senate upon this measure contain some 1,350 pages of printed testimony, and the hearings of the Ways and Means Committee of the House are of similar length.
		The committee regards it as inadvisable to create new independent agencies, particularly where their functions are closely related to the major functions of an existing department.

	The Senate Finance Committee's TANF Reauthorization Bill, Revised 5/11/04
		Senator Frist later pulled the bill from the Senate calendar after Republicans and Democrats were unable to reach agreement on how the Senate debate would proceed.
		The Senate funding level figure is sufficient to maintain the current level of child care assistance to low-income working families not receiving TANF cash benefits while also meeting the child-care costs of the work requirements in the Senate bill.
		The Senate bill is less restrictive than the 40-hour per week requirement in the House bill that would apply regardless of the age of children in the family.

	The Senate Finance Committee's TANF Reauthorization Bill, Revised 5/11/04
		The Senate Finance bill would increase the TANF participation rates that states must meet — this means increasing the share of TANF recipients that states must engage in a specified set of work activities — and increase the required hours each TANF recipient must participate in such work activities to count toward the participation rates.
		One of the remaining problems with the Senate provision is that would allow states to waive certain important protections for low-income families, such as the requirement that state child care programs provide families with meaningful choices of child care providers.
		Under the Senate bill, states that faced economic hard times as evidenced by rising unemployment rates or food stamp caseloads (which typically are a good indicator of job availability in the low-wage labor market), would receive funding to offset a portion of the costs associated with rising TANF caseloads.

		If ever there were a subject upon which all should be able to agree in true bi-partisan unison, it sould be the insistence on verifiable restoration and preservation of the basic human rights of a horribly oppressed and persecuted indigenous people, the Montagnards of Vietnam.
