This transcript is from the third in a series of hearings before the Senate Subcommittee on Social Security and Family Policy focusing on whether the present welfare system should be reformed or replaced. A series of public officials, child and family advocates, and other interested parties testified on the issue of enforcement of child support orders. Their remarks included the following: (1) the enforcement program has worked well in some states; (2) many of the absent parents are poor themselves and cannot pay; (3) legal procedures to establish paternity are often long and/or too complicated; (4) more interstate networks must be formed; (5) the underlying causes of single parent households, such as teen pregnancy, must be addressed; (6) state guidelines and formulas for support payments must be reviewed and perhaps federalized; (7) state agencies which supply child services must be strengthened; (8) some mandatory work programs which have failed or which harass and dehumanize the poor should be discontinued; and (9) substantial money and resources must be allocated for any social program which will upgrade or replace the present ones.
