Authors: Ruth Ellen Wasem, Domestic Social Policy Division 
Abstract: After outlining the options states have to cover noncitzens under TANF and presenting data on the number of LPRs in each state, this report studies whether and which states have exercised these options regarding noncitizen eligibility for TANF. It investigates how states are funding the assistance provided to noncitizens, and also analyzes TANF receipt by state.
