Bill Clinton did, back in 1996.
But AFDC was not eliminated as much as replaced, by a program called Transitional Aid to Needy Families (TANF).
Here are the facts:
What is the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families Program (TANF)?
TANF is a block grant program to help move recipients into work and turn welfare into a program of temporary assistance. Under the welfare reform legislation of 1996, TANF replaced the old welfare programs known as Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC), the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills Training (JOBS) program and the Emergency Assistance (EA) program. The law ended federal entitlement to assistance and instead created TANF as a block grant that provides States and tribes federal funds each year. These funds cover benefits, administrative expenses, and services targeted to needy families.
